Well, my first question was: Why under the current filter setting does lpd =
scrape or cut 4 lines from the top? I'm able to get the hard copy the way I=
 want it to look by increasing the top margin by 4 lines, save it as a ps f=
ile, then lpr the file from command line.

The ghostscript comment was referring to previous discussion - sorry for th=
e confusion: If I want to print in r: 300 x 300, the only way that's going =
to happen is by sending it through ghostscript, if I understand correctly? =
How could I modify psif so that "lpr -Php2100 -r300 somefile.ps" would resu=
lt in 1. check if ps 2. adjust for one of available resolution options (300=
 OR 600).

I hope I was a bit better at explaining this time :)
