Troubleshooting MS-Windows Printing

• If your printer is PostScript compatible, print with one of MATLAB's built-in PostScript drivers. There are four PostScript device options that you can use with the print command: -dps, -dpsc, -dps2, and -dpsc2.
• The behavior you are experiencing may occur only with certain versions of the print driver. Contact the print driver vendor for information on how to obtain and install a different driver. If you are using Windows 95, try installing the drivers that ship with the Windows 95 CD-ROM.
• Try printing with one of MATLAB's built-in GhostScript devices. These devices use GhostScript to convert PostScript files into other formats, such as HP LaserJet, PCX, Canon BubbleJet, and so on.
• Use Windows Metafiles as the copy format when using the Edit-->CopyFigure menu item on the figure window menu or the print -dmeta option at the command line. You can then import the file into another application for printing.

  You can set copy options in the figure's File-->Preferences...-->Copying Options dialog box. The Windows Metafile clipboard format produces a better quality image than Windows Bitmap.
