I must be missing something; The Imagewriter II seems to be able to print
reasonably nice near-letter-quality in it's "native" mode, but when asked to
print from MacDraw, MacPaint or MS Word, etc. the quality is really quite
atrocious. (I realize that it is "drawing" the letters in the latter case,
and in "native" mode it's using the on-board ROM character generator).
I am willing (grudgingly :-( ) to put up with this when I, infrequently,
need to imbed graphics with my text, but surely there must be a way to get a
word-processor (MS Word?) to print in a high-quality mode.
I have tried Beverly Hills, Boston II, and Lachine fonts - they are better,
but nowhere near as nice as the Imagewriter's builtin NLQ mode.
HELP!
