Ernst,

I'm not completely sure but it seems to me that 1440x720
and 720x720 have the same single droplet size.
720x360 has a larger droplet size but you only get the
larger size while in that resolution.

So for any one print all the droplets are the same size.

I've deciphered this from looking at tables that control the
print driver.  So if you have any more definitive info I'd be
interested to know.  But it may be a moot point since I imagine
1440x740 is the most likely resolution for photos anyway.
