Macromedia Freehand/Pixelating Objects

Question
Hi Huma,
I have been using  FH8, G4/400 and OS9.2 and HP2210 printer for printing film for screen printing and just recently it began Pixelating any object or Text converted to outlines. I know FH Rasterizes objects and Text when printing to a non post script printer but this is really bad!
Until recently print quality was great.

If I open the same file in Illustrator the print out is perfect.
All other Applications print OK on the HP Printer

I haven't changed any settings in FH8 preferences and I have re-installed both Freehand and the printer drivers but the problem still exists

Hope you can help.

Answer
i have faced the similar problem long time ago, it was some option in printing dialouge box, which says something about printing quality, similar to the page preview options we see in freehand. The problem has been corrected when i chose the Normal/good quality

Check the printing setting, hope you will solve your problem with this.
