Send PS commands to set the options:

    <</HWResolution [x y]>>setpagedevice

etc.  Anything you set with -d, -s, -r, or -g on the command-line can
be set in PS code.

I should also mention that this allows you to use PPD files with the
print plug-in and then print using Ghostscript via CUPS, LPD, or PDQ.

(obviously I'm all for using CUPS, but PPDs and Ghostscript supports
 *any* printing environment)
