This could be your problem if you're running a quite recent (from
Debian testing) version of Firefox which uses Xprint to do its
printing.

If that *is* your problem, the solution, for many people at least, has
been to edit the file:

 /etc/Xprint/en_US/print/attribute/document

and/or:

 /etc/Xprint/C/print/attribute/document

(it depends on how how you have locales set up on your system).

and set:

*default-printer-resolution: 600
