Can you elaborate on the above? How do I change the printer mode?

Yes, that's true.. I know they're supposed to look that way so I guess
what I was trying to find is a workaround that would make the output look
"better" than it should on paper while printing at lower
resolution.. sounds like there's some way to do this from what you've
mentioned above so I'd love to get the details.. thanks for your help
