Draft mode is supposed to look best (& run fastest) when you set the font
on the Mac (that is, on the document to be printed) in Monaco 10 (the
bitmapped version). Then you set it back again when you want to print in a
better mode. That's what I read in some edition of the MacWorld Secrets
book. Apparently Monaco 10 corresponds most closely to the built-in font
in the ImageWriter's ROM.
The question is, where do you get it? None of my System Suitcases or
installer files from 6.0.8 to 7.6.1 seem to have a Monaco 10 bitmap size.
Just TrueType. Maybe that works just as well, but probably slower. Maybe
it's in the Mac's ROM.
