The Pup fetish continues!

There is apparently a common fault with most printers that a friend recently made me aware of. All of the drawings I have done using AMP have been done via a print out of the math model. They always seemed to have a slightly off skew appearance to them that I couldn't account for (sloppy drawing aside). The reason for it was the printer, it will not print a true picture. To test how far out my printer was, I drew a 4" square and printed it out to measure. It was almost a quarter of an inch higher! My friends printer does exactly the same. It isn't too difficult to compensate for it via photoshop or similar program with a scaling option. It's worth checking it out if you use your printer a lot for your art work.

Cheers Terry
