Operating System Preferences (Windows)
Computers running Windows have some additional options.
Printing Option
In the Printing Option area of the Operating System page of the Preferences dialog
box, if you disable the No Print Banding check box, print banding is disabled.
Disabling print banding may help some PostScript printers, but it hurts the
performance of some bitmap printers, such as the Hewlett-Packard® DeskJet®
printers. The operation of most dot matrix printers is faster if you do not enable No
Print Banding. If you experience problems printing in landscape orientation, you may
have to enable the No Print Banding check box.
Display Option
If your video display driver is set to 16-bit colors, you may experience some color
irregularities on your screen when you use Corel Painter. Enabling the No Device
Dependent Bitmaps check box will correct this problem with most 16-bit color video
displays. If you are not using 16-bit color, enabling this check box will have no effect
on your system.
