I never used that feature and I don't know the answer, but I agree
with Cecil that one should be able to set a fixed resolution for all
images with some command without having to modify images with external
tools.

pdfTeX supports that with
    image_resolution 300
in pdftex.cfg for example (but maybe only if resolution is not defined).

Browsing the sources would suggest that
    \setupexternalfigures[resolution=300]
could work, but it doesn't change anything. One also finds
\setupsystem[resolution=...], but no effect either.
