#ADPro Postscript
2 messages in this thread
I am having a problem printing from ADPro 2.5 to a Postscript printer.
Here is my set-up and configs:
Amiga 2000 with GVP '040 33mhz with 16 megs RAM
MegaChip
105MB HD
88MB SyQuest
SupraFAXmodem 14.4
Video Toaster & Breadboard
Fargo Primera Dye-Sub Printer
HP Laserjet 4 with Postscript and 6 megs RAM
Preferences are set to Postscript printer, 600 X 600 dpi.
O.K., when I load a 24bit IFF file in ADPro, and try to save to the
Postscript printer by using the PAR: file as listed in the manual, I get a
very bad image that looks like 75 dpi or less on paper.
When I use the Preferences saver, and set the density to 1 for 600 X 600,
It takes the printer a few minutes or more, and nothing comes out. My
Fargo Primera dye-sub printer seems to work correctly.
When I called HP, they didn't act like they had heard of the Amiga, much
less have a printer driver for it. I have also tried some of the PD
printer drivers I downloaded from CompuServe, but some would lock up the
machine and others just didn't seem to work.
Any Suggestions?

David,
When you select Postscript printer, select panel number 2 when the 3
postscript prefs panels come up. Set DNS/ANG to Ignore. Go back to panel
one, hit return. Select PAR: and make up a name and hit return. You
should now get a full DPI printing.
