You are confusing the editing resolution and the output resolution.
Editing the file at 300 DPI is fine, but probably excessive for a 55 LPI output. If you drop the resolution down to 200 or 150, you won't be able to tell the difference in the final output. Editing at 300 isn't high enough to hurt anything, so if you think in the future you might want to go bigger, having extra DPI is a good thing.
For outputting, you need to enter the DPI value of the printer. The C8800 is 1200x600, so you would enter 600 DPI. Print using the printers highest printer resolution.
