Just had a quick look of the stylus_color_720dpi-filter. The first couple of lines look like:
# PostScript 0 %! filter /usr/bin/gs -sDEVICE=stcolor -r720 -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dSpotSize='{2.6 2.4 2.6 2}' -sOutputFile=- - 0 \004%! filter /usr/bin/gs -sDEVICE=stcolor -r720 -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dSpotSize='{2.6 2.4 2.6 2}' -sOutputFile=- - # PDF 0 %PDF fpipe /usr/bin/gs -sDEVICE=stcolor -r720 -q -dSAFER -dNOPAUSE -dSpotSize='{2.6 2.4 2.6 2}' -sOutputFile=- $FILE # TeX DVI 0 \367\002 fpipe /usr/bin/dvips -D 720 -R -q -f now, copy this file to stylus_color_740dpi-filter and change all the 720 values to 740. Then update your printcap to points to this modified filter. Restart lpd by running /etc/init.d/lpd restart or /etc/init.d/lprng restart depends which printing package you got, then it should work..
