Don

I always print files at 360 DPI (a multiple of the 1440 DPI my printer
is capable of) I've always sort of assumed that having the one directly
divisible by the other makes things easier for the printer driver (I'm
probably talking rubbish of course).

Err, Darrell.  I don't think you need to drive 2800DPI at the printer.
For color if you send a file at around 300DPI you will get all you need.
The printer prints at 2800 DPI to provide a smooth tone and blend the
colors.

For piezography I believe that larger files work better but still only
in the magnitude of two times.

Don donning the asbestos but wanting the correct information out there.
