No, but I can do that as root; > The manpage of lpoptions has all the details; it should work something > like this: > > $ lpoptions -l | grep -i quality > Quality/Resolution, Quality, Ink Type, Media Type: *FromPrintoutMode > 300DraftGrayscaleK 300GrayscaleK 600GrayscaleK > > $ lpoptions -o Quality=600GrayscaleK > $ lpoptions -l | grep -i quality > Quality/Resolution, Quality, Ink Type, Media Type: FromPrintoutMode > 300DraftGrayscaleK 300GrayscaleK *600GrayscaleK OK, that works. There are two settings, Quality and Resolution. When I change them using lpoptions, then lpoptions gives back the changed values. (But the web interface doesn't). But the resolution is still the lowest. Then I tried setting with both lpoptions and the web interface. Didn't work either. So I tried something else: I used another driver, called "Epson Stylus Color 800 Foomatic/stcolor (recommended) (en)". It's not for the STC 850... But it works! (Although it won't print in 1440x720, but I don't need that -- 720 DPI is enough). Anyway, it seems taht the stc800ih PPD is broken. Nobody else had that problem?
