Quickly change the picture

Is it possible to preset the resolution of the picture and then use hot keys to apply them to other pictures or photos?

Thanks for translating in English.

A Gimp image is horizontal pixels x vertical pixels and that is independent of "resolution" = pixels-per-inch (PPI) which is a printing property.

The resolution is set in Image -> Print Size and I do not know of a way to use a hot key to set that property. 
Use Image -> Print Size before exporting or saving an image to set the PPI.

Things to understand: 
Gimp works in pixels.
Example: If the open image is 300 PPI.
File -> Open as Layers a 72 PPI image.
Any resulting image is now 300 PPI.

Maybe you want a scaling shortcut example 72 PPI -> 300 PPI which is very different to changing image resolution.

Edit:
This a 72 ppi image. Scale to the equivalent 300 ppi image. Any scaling, up or down will degrade the image. As far as I know there is no way to assign a hot key. You need to make a script or plugin.
