That's normal. EPS graphics are really only meant for printing to PS printers,
not for viewing. They include an optional preview which might be b/w or color
and might be at low or higher resolution. The preview is what you get on
screen and on non-PS printers.
If possible, re-make the EPS graphics with a higher resolution preview image.
Or if your real need is screen shows rather than printing, use a different
format for your graphics.
