Not after fresh install. I did the following steps:

# apt-get remove --purge xprt-common
 ...
# apt-get install xprt-common
 I answered 180.
# less /etc/Xprint/C/print/attributes/document
 ...
 *default-printer-resolution: 600
 ...
# dpkg-reconfigure xprt-common
 I answered 180.
# less /etc/Xprint/C/print/attributes/document
 ...
 *default-printer-resolution: 180
 ...

Yes, I've been asked but the answer hasn't been reflected in
/etc/Xprint/C/print/attributes/document.
