I agree with the pain thing, but typically you'd only have to do it once for
a single installation (assuming it's the company logo or whatever).

I'm surprised that images wouldn't print well.  Oh, I guess if you're
printing at higher than screen DPI?  I wonder how much of this could be
mitigated with a higher-dpi image.
