- How do you know it's not 600dpi? I'd be very very surprised that if
- this is happening, it isn't a bug in the HP printer. PostScript
- programs cannot specify their resolution -- it's up to the interpreter
- to do that! The images may look low-res because they are--they're
- being scaled up from their original size.

-
- Not for the LJ4M, and not for the PS version, at least not from SGI.
- There shouldn't need to be one, though!
