And when you print, select a very low
"screen frequency". Around 60 lpi should get
you an acceptable print to photocopy.

Gotta get those dots apart and larger so the copier can reproduce them.

An unusual request, bur someone may have experienced the same! I send perfectly good pictures to our local church, but they are reproduced on a photocopier, and appear pretty ghastly! Is there a plug-in or a particular rendering which might improve the quality of the print?
Advice gratefully received!

Another solution:
(useful if you do not have access to a postscript printer)

Convert image to Grayscale.
Use the "Pixelate/Color Halftone" filter to create halftone patter. Adjust contrast to 100%

Save/Print/Photocopy
