{{draft task}}
The task is to demonstrate the creation of a series of 1 point wide vertical pinstripes with a sufficient number of pinstripes to span the entire width of the printed page (except for the last pinstripe). The pinstripes should alternate one point white, one point black. (Where the printer does not support producing graphics in terms of points, pixels may be substituted in this task.)
 
After the first inch of printing, we switch to a wider 2 point wide vertical pinstripe pattern. alternating two points white, two points black. We then switch to 3 points wide for the next inch, and then 4 points wide, etc. This trend continues for the entire length of the page (or for 12 inches of run length in the case of a printer using continuous roll stationery). After printing the test pattern the page is ejected (or the test pattern is rolled clear of the printer enclosure, in the case of continuous roll printers).
The task is to demonstrate the creation of 1 pixel wide pinstripes across the width of the graphics printer. The pinstripes should alternate one pixel white, one pixel black.
 
Note that it is an acceptable solution to use the smallest marks that the language provides, rather than working at native printer resolution, where this is not achievable from within the language.
After the first inch of printing, we switch to a wider 2 pixel wide pinstripe pattern, alternating two pixels white, two pixels black.
 
Optionally, on systems where the printer resolution cannot be determined, it is permissible to prompt the user for printer resolution, and to calculate point size based on user input, enabling fractional point sizes to be used.
We then switch to 3 pixel wide for the next inch, and then 4 pixels wide for the 4th inch.

This assumes that the ''dome.h'' header file is copied to an ''include'' sub-directory of the current one and that the resulting ''printer.so'' shared library file is created in the latter.
 
We can now use this plug-in in the following script which draws the image to the canvas, copies it to an ''ImageData'' object, saves it as a ''.png'' file and prints it to the default printer.
