Sorry, I guess my sense of humor got the better of me. I was not discouraged by the previous post, it just activated my funny bone. Thank you for the information below. I had not explored the PrinterSetUp class. I thought Joe was referring to a physical setting on the printer.

This is not good. I have a sinking feeling that RB will only tell me
how to print hairlines if I attend REAL World expo next March.

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
