Abstract
The results of a simulation study to predict the IUE imaging chain performance are presented, including simulation photographs and transparencies of ultraviolet echelle spectra. Errors in wavelength determination and radiometric measurements due to system degradation are indicated to be minor. Some order overlap is predicted at the bottom of the echelle format
