Assuming the printers will use a 150line screen have you considered

interpolates.
Dear Paul
I have been told by repro people that one should avoid exact multiples of file over screen res. Such as your example where 300 divided by 150 eguals 2 exactly. For this reason most of my scans are made to 120 pixel lines per centimetre which is unlikely to ever clash with screen rulings in inches.
