My OnDraw() shows a bitmap via pDC->StretchBlt(), and when I send it to an
inkjet printer it looks fine. But when I send it to a laser printer, the
picture is gone -- but text and lines that I added are still there. I've
tried two different laser printers, and lots of settings, but no luck.

Is this a bug in the printer drivers, or what? Can anyone help?

If no one responds here, you might want to repost in the graphics group:
