I have the same problem : Win NT 4.0, MI 5.0, HP 750 C.
The only workaround I found was to choose a hatch with
bigger holes.

 Jure.

Zadeva: MI Win NT Printer Driver : HP690C
Pomembnost:     Visoka

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.
