RE: [Digital BW] is 2200 Black-Only sharper than 2400 ?

2005-11-08 by John Moody

2880 on the 2200 printer uses only the small dots; variable drop size is
cancelled.  True, the supplied curves have been made in 1440 mode and work
best in that mode.  2880 mode tends to use more ink, and most people don’t
find any useful improvement so they don’t use it.  It does allow finer
detail however, so I thought it would be a simple enough test to see if any
difference was found.

Best regards,
John Moody

I was under the impression from things read here from Roy and others that
QTR is set up for 1440 and it isn't a good idea to use it at 2880.
