When printing
graphics, the out-
put and the screen
are different.
If the printer driver is configured to use the graphics command, the graph-
ics command from the machine is used to print.
If you want to print accurately, set the printer driver to print without using
the graphics command.
See the printer driver Help.
Page layout is not
as expected.
Print areas differ depending on machine used. Information that fits on a
single page on one machine may not fit on a single page of another ma-
chine.
Adjust the [Printable area:] setting in the [Printer Configuration...] dialog box
on the [Print Settings] tab in the RPCS printer driver.
See the printer driver Help.
