[sqr-users] Print-image using .HPG

["Bencke, Gina" <gbencke@kichler.com>]

 am having trouble printing a new logo from UNIX.  I have written a test
program that first prints an existing logo using .HPG format and then a
new file, also in HPG format.  The existing logo prints correctly but
the new logo appears as a gray box.
 
The new file was provided to me in both .JPG and .HPG format.  Since the
.HPG file I was given did not print correctly, I opened the .JPG file in
paint, and saved it as a .BMP file and then ran the BMP_TO_HPG.sqr to
create a second .HPG file. I have tried several image-sizes, all to no
avail. The JPG file behaves identically to the HPG file.
 
btw - if I use the .BMP file in the Windows environment the new .BMP
logo both views and prints correctly using several image-sizes.
 
I am using the following declare printer command:
 
declare printer        ! Declare printer characteristics
  type=HPLASERJET
  left-margin=.25  top-margin=.25
  font=3                 ! Font number
  font-style=fixed
  lines-inch=8           ! Lines per inch
  point-size=8
  orientation=portrait   ! portrait or landscape
 
and for HPG

      graphic () font 4 8        
      print-image  (3, 50)
       type            = HPGL-FILE    
       source             = $logofile !$image_path
       image-size         = (24, 8)
 
for JPG
 
      graphic () font 4 8       
      print-image  (3, 50)
       type            = JPEG-FILE    
       source             = $logofile !$image_path
       image-size         = (24, 8) 
 
for BMP
 
      graphic () font 4 8        
      print-image  (3, 50)
       type            = BMP-FILE    
       source             = $logofile !$image_path
       image-size         = (24, 8)
 
The version of SQR is : SQR for PeopleSoft/8.19/Sun/SunOS 5.6/Oracle
8.0.6/Jan 02 2003.
 
I have looked at the headers in both the old (working) .HPG file and the
new (failing) .HPG file and nothing seems to indicate that the new file
is corrupt.  Can anyone give me some idea of things to try?
