Re: [Digital BW] Re: Why print at 2880 DPI

Jim,

I've used Premium Glossy, Colorlife, and Photo Paper; they all have 2880
settings. Heavyweight Matte only has a 1440 setting. If you use one of the
other paper settings to get 2880 on HWM, then you will get different ink
loads and profiles - not just different dpi.
