Here's a test just using echo off.
Code:
$ cat echo_off.sql
spool echo_test.lst

set echo on

select 'ECHO IS ON' from dual;

set echo off

select 'ECHO IS OFF' from dual;

exit

spool off

Code:
#!/bin/ksh

sqlplus user/pwd@mydb @echo_off.sql

exit

Code:
cat echo_test.lst
SQL> 
SQL> select 'ECHO IS ON' from dual;

'ECHOISON'                                                                      
----------                                                                      
ECHO IS ON                                                                      

SQL> 
SQL> set echo off

'ECHOISOFF'                                                                     
-----------                                                                     
ECHO IS OFF

It works for me. Are you sure you aren't running some sort of login trigger that keeps turning it on?

ingres_prepare - Prepare a query for later execution

SYNOPSIS
mixed ingres_prepare (resource $link, string $query) DESCRIPTION
Prepares a query for execution by ingres_execute(3). The query becomes part of the currently open transaction. If there is no open transaction, ingres_query(3) opens a new transaction. To close the transaction, you can call either ingres_commit(3) to commit the changes made to the database or ingres_rollback(3) to cancel these changes. When the script ends, any open transaction is rolled back (by calling ingres_rollback(3)). You can also use ingres_autocom- mit(3) before opening a new transaction to have every SQL query immediately committed. Note Related Configurations See also the ingres.describe, ingres.scrollable and ingres.utf8 directives in Runtime Configuration. PARAMETERS
o $link - The connection link identifier o $query - A valid SQL query (see the Ingres SQL reference guide) in the Ingres documentation. See the query parameter in ingres_query(3) for a list of SQL statements which cannot be executed using ingres_prepare(3) RETURN VALUES
ingres_prepare(3) returns a query result identifier that is used with ingres_execute(3) to execute the query. To see if an error occurred, use ingres_errno(3), ingres_error(3), or ingres_errsqlstate(3). SEE ALSO
ingres_unbuffered_query(3), ingres_fetch_array(3), ingres_fetch_assoc(3), ingres_fetch_object(3), ingres_fetch_row(3), ingres_commit(3), ingres_rollback(3), ingres_autocommit(3), ingres_set_environment(3), ingres_errno(3), ingres_error(3). PHP Documentation Group INGRES_PREPARE(3)
