My question is, is there any way to change the print quality? I win95 the printer setup lets you chose Best, Normal, EconoFast(50% less ink), and InkSaver (75% less ink). Thes lower settings are great if you don't want to use up a whole in cartridge in a month. Is there any way I can access them in FreeBSD. Using the PCL command I have changed The quality from Finale to draft. but I would like to get it lower still. Another question I have is how can I print double sided? A think I can set a a filter to do It but I don't know how. The way it works in Win95 is it prints all the odd pages then you tune them over and it prints the even pages.
