Hi Randy,

I was trying to scan an letterhead logo in and then be able to reprint it.
Now if it was for the web, no prob, but I was having a heck of a time
getting it to smooth out right.  Either they would be very jagged, or very
fuzzy.  Thru some very helpful advice I was able to print out just fine.
Thanks much for your input.

Carol
