Re: [Digital BW] MIS VT with Paul's curves

2001-11-13 by Martin Wesley

Bernhard,

I have Piezo on a 1200 and MIS VM on a 1280. I see no difference in 
sharpness or the amount of detail between the two. While the Piezo 
driver will accept any input resolution with no effect on 
performance, inputting files over 360 dpi to the Epson driver greatly 
increase image processing times without offering any visual 
improvements in the image. Since the end result is the same, I really 
don't know what the Piezo driver does with the extra information.

resolution: I read on the Piezo3000 list that the Cone driver can 
handle input files of more than 360dpi *and* print more detail, 
whereas the Epson driver´s limit is just 360. Can anybody say 
something about his experience with detail resolution and Epson vs. 
Cone? My MIS FS prints are nice, but its always interesting to get 
better...
