Could the driver perhaps be printing the document as an image, versus vectors? i.e., when something doesn't print correctly from Adobe Reader, you have an option to "print as image" which will rasterize all vectors/curves/fonts in the document. Perhaps its rasterizing with a nearest-neighbor resizing algorithm which would cause fine gridlines to disappear. I dunno, just an idea.

Casale [mailto:jcas...@activenetwerx.com] Sent: Wednesday, January 06, 2010 1:56 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: HP 2430n printing issue I have one of these amongst several that misses a repeatable pattern of gridlines when printing from excel. It's a perfect pattern that almost looks intentional but the same doc printed to the other prints them all. Firmware and driver are all the same, I'm lost where else to look? All the settings (though not likely relevant) in jetdirect webadmin are the same. Anyone seen this?
