In my last job I found the points printed on a local printer but not on the networked printer. I suspect this is because the PostScript rendering was done by different RIP software. It was a nuisance for me because the nicer printer would not print the points. I remember trying Allan Hayes' solution of... >You can use >SetOptions[ListPlot, PlotStyle -> {PointSize[0.01]}]; >But each time you use PlotStyle inside ListPlot you will need to >include PointSize[0.01] in the styles. >This problem can be avoided by using >SetOptions[ListPlot,Prolog -> PointSize[0.01]] >(provided you don't use Prolog inside ListPlot) I remember it worked provided you had big chunky dots, but when the dots got beneath a certain size they disappeared. This is remembering back a couple of years, so don't take my word for it. But try another printer if you've got one around (what me, an engineer? some mistake, surely?).
