Hi, my remarks were based on your statement that you :

1. are making images smaller than the original screen image, and that these
scaled images now look "perfect" on the screen.

So, I'm suggesting you capture the screen bitmap, scale it as needed, and
send that to the graphics service or whatever is feeding the printer.
