Versaterm printing bug?

I have been noticing something strange about my Imagewriter (1) output
recently: namely, that when the printer is going from right to left
in draft mode when using Versaterm in ImageWriter (RS-232) mode that
every line that was printed from right to left is lighter then
the lines printed from left to right; since the lines get lighter farther
to the left, it looks like it is forgeting to advance the ribbon when
going in this direction. However, when I print using ImageWriter (IW Driver) 
mode, it prints uniformly dark. Am I imagining this?

Than-que
