This is simply not true.  Joe (and others) have happily been trying to help
you solve your problem today.  REAL Software also has free support available
<http://www.realsoftware.com/support/technical/> if you fail to get a
satisfactory answer on this list.

Joe was simply pointing out that among the many varied sessions at REAL
World there was one on printing.  I believe the previous posters response
was well off base and it's a shame if it has unnecessarily discouraged you.

As for the problem at hand:

What Joe has said is that even though you may think the printer is set to
600dpi it is likely actually using the default of 72dpi.  Before you do any
printing check the HorizontalResolution and VerticalResolution properties of
your PrinterSetup class.  My guess is that these values will be 72.  In
order to change these set the MaxHorizontalResolution and
MaxVerticalResolution properties appropriately (probably 600 or -1) before
calling PageSetupDialog , OpenPrinterDialog or OpenPrinter.

Please let us know if you're still having problems.  Best regards,

David
