Re: Settings for BO printing

Peter: You set the dot gain in the printer driver, not the image
editor. It's unrelated to you using PWP instead of PS. 

For your 1280, click "print with preview" then under "print space"
change the "same as source" to 10%, 15% or 20% percent dot gain
(whichever makes your prints look like your screen), then proceed with
printing your image. Instant WYSIWYG.

Of course Clayton explains this in detail.
