Hello,

I am trying to print to a Laserwriter Select 360 on a Solaris-2.7 box.
The entry for the printer is shown below. The printer does print the info but
in a low resolution (looks exactly the same when printed tp -dstdout).

I tried

man -t man | lp -dstdout > j.ps; lp -dlaser j.ps

and

man -t man | lp -dlaser

both give similar printouts.

Any way to tell lp to print in higher resloution?
