That system's running xprint, and it just appears that the default
resolution configured for xprint is above the available resolution of
your printer. You can correct this by editing
/etc/Xprint/C/print/attributes/document and setting
*default-printer-resolution: 300
(or whatever resoution is appropriate for the printer).
