Re: Up-rez and print at 360 or print at 300?

2005-08-23 by Richard Orban

I don't know what's "best" - here's what I do: I'm printing to an Epson 
7600 using ImagePrint so I keep my PS print documents (flattened TIFs) 
at 360.  I do all image restoration and processing at the scan 
resolution of 400 dpi.  I use GF to enlarge in 1.5" steps while keeping 
the 400 dpi resolution.  Then use PSCS to convert to 360 dpi so that 
ImagePrint/Epson doesn't do it.  I'm satisfied with B&W that I get off 
the 7600.
