Hi we recently bought an Epson 800 and put it on our Ethernet network.
When I print electropherograms on it the peaks print with very thick lines
on all resolution settings. Compared to our HP1200C/PS the text, borders
etc print out just the same, it is only the peak profiles that look
different. Can anyone suggest a fix for this problem. Would it be the
fact that the Epson is not a postscript printer? Is anyone using a
nonpostscript printer to print electropherograms with similar results?
Thanks for the help. Some review on your printer satifaction would be
welcome too I will post a summary if it is of interest.
