i figured i would post an update to this thread, so a while back through my job i got a free broken printer, which was an easy 5 minute fix, anyway i get it home and get it fixed and start printing and the prints are coming out okay
i was using default settings and printing from linux, however i recently needed a new laptop for work and got my self a nice little hp laptop nothing to fancy or anything
anyway i connected the printer to this new laptop and the difference in prints is night and day, for whatever reason i guess cause the windows drivers have more features, but the prints are being printed exactly the same as i see on my screen and they all look fantastic!
and i didnt even touch the settings except to switch it to the correct size and type of paper, all of the color settings are all default
for anyone wondering the printer is an old Samsung Laserjet C1810 series printer and its awesome!
only bad thing is i ran out of bitboxes and i ran out of paper which is currently on back order, so as soon as i can get more and as soon as my n64 cases get here i will be printing alot more!
thanks for all the help and advice!
