The reason that MacPaint documents don't look all that much better on the Laserwriter than they do on the Imagewriter is that they are being printed at Mac screen resolution, scaled up to compensate for the difference in dpi. If MacPaint worked with Laserwriter-resolution bitmaps and scaled them down for the ImageWriter, there would probably be a quite noticeable difference.
