Re: [Digital BW] Optimal DPI

Hi Austin,

Don't shoot the messenger - I just thought I was providing some useful
information.

As I now, it seems scale my prints to 333.33 'DPI', I think I will
try a
few 12x16 at 360. It may relieve the Epson software of a bit of
approximation error.

My current souce of photo input is a digicam. To whatever I scale
(resize) that 'pixel' set for a given image print size is my effective
'printed elements per inch' ( if not actually DPI ) into the Epson
printer driver.

Just passing on some info,
Alex P
