Look into your PPD and see if there is a OpenUI .. CloseUI section where 
several resolution values can be selected. If yes, then you may chose the 
resolution you want either using the lpadmin command (see the man page) or 
the web interface (manage printers).

If in doubt, post (an URL to) the PPD.
