thank you sir,

i am working in debian linux,so that i can't able to see the error_log,because i can't able to login as root,and one more thing when i testing with FEDORA 7,also i am getting same 100x100dpi,now also same.

imagetoraster filter is working with my printer.

i can print any type of file ,only except required dpi,

i think page header couldn't able to ppd file properly?

suggest me sir.
