MORE INFORMATION

If you receive one of the above error messages when you print a chart to an HP PaintJet or an HP DeskJet 550C printer, use the following to print the chart:

• Reduce the complexity of the chart (remove borders, set background to none, etc.).



• Make sure that the font you are using is either a TrueType font or a printer font (and NOT a screen font).



• If your chart is a bar chart, use a dithered fill rather than a solid fill.



• Make sure that the PAINTJET.DRV and UNIDRV.DLL files have the same date, especially if you are working in a network environment.
