OK, I give up.  In DRAFT mode, the Imagewriter prints bi-directionally.
In High Quality mode the Imagewriter prints bi-directionally.

But in STANDARD mode it only prints left-to-right.  One would think that
things could be sped up considerably in the intermediate quality mode by
not wasting carriage motion and printing in both directions.

Any gurus out there know the inside story?
