2-pass DEGAS printout program?

EPSON printers (and clones) have a two pass letter quality mode.  Each line
is printed twice, with the second pass deliberately off-center.  This
results in printouts that are more attractive than they would have been
with only a single pass.

However, my copy of DEGAS only does one pass.  So is there a program around
that will print DEGAS high-res (.pi3) files on an EPSON clone using the
2-pass mode?

Do graphics printed in this fashion really look better?  I know that text
does!

If this program is not available, I'll write my own.  Let me know if you
want a copy...



Thanks,
