I have encountered the following problem printing to a Deskjet 690C
printer, and would be interested to know if anyone else has
encountered/overcome it:
When printing from MapInfo 5.5, overlaying transparent hatches do not print
correctly. Only the uppermost hatch is printed, as if the hatch had a
background colour set, which it doesn't.
MapInfo is running on a Win NT 4.0 workstation, the printer driver is the
latest downloaded from HP website (dj503en.exe June '98). The printer is a
remote shared network printer.
If I print from MapInfo 4.0 on a Win 3.11 machine (with the printer
directly attached on LPT1) it behaves correctly.
Ironically I also have an 'antique' HP Paintjet XL which prints the
overlaying hatches correctly from MapInfo 5.5 under Win NT 4.0.
If I save the map window as a .jpeg and send it to the HPDJ690c it also
prints correctly, but resolution is not satisfactory.
HP not interested.
Any input gratefully received.
