[THIN] Setting a default resolution for Deskjet 500

We alias lots of printers to the bog standard DJ500 driver and it has given
us no trouble. However, we are now converting some fat clients to thin
clients at the end of a fairly slow link and users are complaining that
printing is extremely slow. After some experimentation we have found that
changing the DJ500 print resolution to 150dpi helps things no end so we'd
like to set that as the default for those users. The default NT4 driver does
not allow you to preset the print resolution globally but I was wondering if
it might be possible to make a copy of the DJ500 driver and hack it somehow
to offer 150dpi by default.

Any takers?
Regards
Angus
