Does Xprint support anti-aliased fonts ?

Question back: When do we need anti-aliased fonts ? Anti-aliasing is a “hack” to work around the limitations caused by the low resolution of monitors – they usually operate between 72 DPI and 150 DPI. But Xprint operates on printers where the usual minimum resolution is 300 DPI (today’s normal office printers support resolutions ranging from 300 DPI up to 2400 DPI depending on the model; most common is 600 DPI). Anti-aliasing at those resolutions is not required anymore. Additionally many printers support their own font anti-aliasing at lower resolutions which is far better and faster than it could be “done” on the client side.
