Mac Reading There is a known problem in QuickDraw, which at first may appear to be a problem with a printer or printer driver. QuickDraw PICT or TIFF images have vertical lines running through them when printed in landscape mode at some sizes other than 100%. The artifacts are most easily seen in Black & White mode, however, the problem also occurs with color images.

Workaround

Until this problem is fixed, there is a fairly simple workaround, which is to adjust the scaling factor in the Page Setup dialog. Apple's tests showed 80% and 100% scaling did not exhibit the problem, but 98% did.The Famous Apple!
