EugenyG Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I have an old printer with a worn cartridge that (even filled with ink) prints bleakly. It it possible to tell the printer to double-print (that is, pass the cartridge head twice on each line, repeating the points of contact twice) in order to make the print darker? Yes, I know I can just print the page, then insert it again and re-print it, but it is impossible to have the page run through in EXACTLY the same position, resulting in the print being distorted. Double-printing through the method I want would mean double-printing on each line without the paper moving at all in the meantime, thus reducing distortion. Live free or die. First option is exhausted, so guess what remains? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crucifyed4us Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 You sound quite sure of yourself mercifull. Actually if you know any of the machine language then it would be quite simple to build a secondary driver that did that. Who knows, your printer may have the ability too (I have never heard of one that does though) Have you tried cleaning the heads? Most modern printers have some sort of cleaning process. If that doesn't work though I would just get a new printer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
