I use the following mode with good results. 

  message "Preloading the local modes";

  def common_mode_setup_ =
    proofing := 0;
    fontmaking := 1;
    tracingtitles := if pixels_per_inch > 700: 1 else: 0 fi;
  enddef;

  message "HP LaserJet IV";

  mode_def PS_Six =  
    pixels_per_inch := 600;
    blacker := .05;
    fillin := 0;
    o_correction := .6;
    common_mode_setup_;
  enddef;

Any suggestions or improvements welcome.

Bye
