I have a Laserjet 4L that I recently modified in CUPS; thus a PPD from a newer version of HPLIP was used. As a result, though, everything printed appeared to be in draft quality, and there was no option to change this in CUPS. When I tried an older PPD file, the quality was back and there were more options in CUPS -- Under "General", the older PPD has the additional options "Manual Feed of Paper", "Toner Saving", and "Number of Copies". It also has an "Adjustment" category, with "REt Setting" and "Toner Density". The important option was "Toner Saving"; with the older PPD file, if I turn this on, I get the same draft quality as the newer PPD. When it's off, quality is good again.
The PPD from HPLIP 1.7.2 has these options, but 1.7.3 does not. I cannot find a way, with a newer PPD file, to get out of draft/toner save mode. Is such a change still possible, perhaps with a different method?
