just to answer my own question:

after many, many hours of experimentation:

i don't know how many other dot matrix printers this may apply to,
but for fbsd 2.2.8 + gs 5.10 + an epson fx 100:

for gs, set r240x144 and sDEVICE=okiibm.

none of the epson drivers worked well, and
no other resolution works well with "okiibm".

thanks.
