Problems with Stepped Lines

Description of problem

When you look at the image you have printed there are `stepped lines' in the borders of arrows and diagonal lines. The lines should be straight with no stepping.
Shown below is an example of what you might see if you have problems with Stepped Lines:

Corrective Action

1. If the image has been printed using the Normal or Fast print quality setting and it is not acceptable to the customer, then reprint it using the Best print quality setting.
2. Turn On the "Maximum Detail" option in the Driver.
3. The problems may be inherent in the image that you are trying to print. Try to improve the image with the application that generated the file.
