From this position I am dumping the pictures directly to a laserwriter. The problem: The pictures look fine on the screen, but when they output to the laser writer there is some interference -> specifically the outlines tend to be "whited out" in parts leaving little dots of clear space instead of a grey-scale pattern. I suspect it has something to do with the fact that the laser writer can't handle such a rapid change in color/grey so quickly. Anyone have any ideas? Regards, Rob
