Hi-resolution pictures & printing

Hello.  I'm having trouble printing hi-res pics (600 dpi) images with  
the FTC.  They print blurry, and by default, the FTC reduces the DPI  
to 72.  I have tried to go through the control and ensure it maintains  
the DPI of the image sent in.  However, when that is done & I set the  
printersetup object's max horiz / max vertiz to -1 to get the best  
quality, the FTC beachballs when I tell it to print.  If I don't set  
the printersetup values to -1, it prints, but again, the images are  
blurry.

Also, while looking at the code, I saw that if scale =1 when inserting  
an image, a resize is still performed.  Additionally, image resizing  
in the FTC seems to use REALbasic's built-in scaling which is of poor  
quality.  I would much rather have it follow the guidelines of using  
the MBS scaling functions or the Einhugur scaling functions since one  
or the other is already required.

Are there any solutions for the mentioned issues in the pipeline  
already?  How about a workaround for the reduced image DPI / scaling?   
Thank you.
