Hi Banhien
I've tried all the easy one's.
The only way to get the lines is to enter the printer settings>Paper/Quality>Advanced>Prin in Max DPI>Yes and only on this setting do the thin lines come out.
It used to print them without all the special tweaking.
Issues with this are that it wastes far too much ink and takes 5 minutes per page even for a simple schematic as shown above.
Something has changed - and I changed nothing.
