Package: printer-driver-escpr
Version: 1.6.8-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Hi,

I have printed a vector graphics file with driver escpr,
but the two different options:
#lpr -o quality=PLAIN_NORMAL filename.ps
#lpr -o quality=PLAIN_HIGH filename.ps
don't show any difference in printing resolution.

The ppd file has the following lines:

*MediaType PLAIN_HIGH/plain papers-High: "<</HWResolution[360 360]>>setpagedevice"
*MediaType PLAIN_NORMAL/plain papers-Standard: "<</HWResolution[360 360]>>setpagedevice"

so, I tried to modify it as follows:

*MediaType PLAIN_VHIGH/plain papers-VeryHigh: "<</HWResolution[5760 1440]>>setpagedevice"
*MediaType PLAIN_HIGH/plain papers-High: "<</HWResolution[720 720]>>setpagedevice"
*MediaType PLAIN_NORMAL/plain papers-Standard: "<</HWResolution[360 360]>>setpagedevice"

and I have reconfigured the printer and its defaults values, obtaining the following results:

at PLAIN_HIGH the printer takes a longer time, but the quality is effectively the same as
PLAIN_NORMAL;
at PLAIN_VHIGH, that is 5760x1440 dpi, the maximum resolution declared by manufacturer, 
there is a filter fault and the printer doesn't print at all.

 The printer is an Epson ET-2500

There seems to be no problem in newer versions anymore, so I am closing this bug manually now.
