Inkjet printers don't dither at ANY "L"PI.   Evidence has been 
presented in this forum in the past that the Epson 2200 resamples to 
a fixed 720 PPI before dithering.   But regardless of what 
resolution it resamples to, the bottom line is the same:  dithering 
is a tradeoff between spatial and value resolution - when one goes 
up the other goes down.
