Yet another LA75 problems note.
I got my LA75 (serial) going using the EpsonX[MPS--?---] driver under
WB1.3
It works great when I print from PAGESETTER II (all those lovely
scalable fonts with no visible jaggies) but when I dump IFF stuff using
GRAPHICS DUMP (on WB) or ScreenX (a PD utility) I get solid black.
If I look closely at the solid black rectangle I can just about make
out several shades of black representing the graphic.
No doubt I've got something set wrong in my preferences for the printer
but I dont understand what the settings are for and I dont have the 1.3
User Manual (my local supplier just gave me the WB disk when I inquired
about upgrading from 1.2) Hence my question buffer below..
1 what are the purposes of the Graphic-1 and Graphic-2 setup screens?
2 What is the purpose of the different shading types ? the default
seems to be ORDERED, what do the others do?
3 One of the settings adjusts the colour interpretation (the BLUE box
is highlighted by default) and seems to affect the number of 'colours'
available (if I de-select blue it says 4096 colours). Whats all this
about?
4 what intensity settings should I use? why are there two intensity
setups?
I guess what I would like to know is WHAT ARE THE SETUPS YOU ARE USING
TO GET GOOD GRAPHIC OUTPUT ON YOUR LA75 IN IBM MODE?

Most of this is from memory...On the Graphics2 screen, you should see a
"DENSITY" setting. Reducing that to 3 or less should improve it
somewhat. You probably should ensure that the setting is BLACK AND
WHITE and not GRAYSCALE.
