Passing twice will give 1440dpi resolution if the second pass starts not at the same point but shifted by 1" / 720 /2 - thus placing all "dots" in between the existing dots from previous ass. I believe this is what Epson and other printers do.

  Austin,

  Exactly, passing 4 times does NOT make 2880 either. But go tell that to 
  Epson. Their feeling is that if you pass once and get 720 and pass twice you 
  1440. Just does not make any sense unless you are a marketing type looking to 
  sell product.

  When I said you are missing the point, I meant that you are looking at it 
  from an engineering point of view. We have to take a step back and look at it 
  from the nonsensical marketing perspective.
