Hi.. I wrote up a short document on how one can configure the metafont modes to generate darker fonts for printed output... this is useful when printing documents written in certain fonts (especially CM) to low resolution printers where the output may be a little too light.. I'd promised to write this up and send it out more than a year ago.. sorry for the delay.. here's the link to the lyx and pdf files:
