Of course, a lot of the problem seems to stem from the fact that no one really
seems to understand how the printer.device really works (aside from Carolyn).
It's documented, in a badly worded piece of fine print, in the RKM.  Printing
is important, guys, even for a video machine.  I use DPAINT to draw things.
I can't hang the resulting video on the wall.  I want to hang the printed
output on the wall.  I can't.  My OKIMATE 20 colour printer can't get the
shades even close!  No where is the half-toning and dithering of the
printer.device adequately described, and I'm convinced it's NOT WORKING!

Grrrr.....
