dpi and stuff

2004-11-11 by Dean

Hey!

I just read on another camera forum that Epson's printers all print at a
"native" resolution of 360dpi and that printing at anything else is
pointless because the driver just re-samples the image to 360dpi. Is
this true?

I notice that the you can select select things like "superPhoto-2880" on
the driver. Does this refer to how much ink it can squeeze into it's
native 360 dots per inch?

Slightly confused now.

Thanks,
Dean
