1160 piezo question

1160 piezo question

2001-12-08 by sherer_stan

I have set up an 1160 with the Cone piezo driver. I see that even 
though I choose 1440 dpi with photo quality paper in the Epson 
dialogue box, the piezo settings remain at 720x720. Is this normal? I 
was surprised because with the 3000 the dpi setting in the piezo will 
automatically switch to 1440x720.

The version I'm using is 5.1 -- with with upgrade applied.

Many thanks,
Stan

Are you using the Export feature in Photoshop to load the Piezo driver?
Doing so bypasses the Epson driver, except to choose paper size.  Choosing
Good, Better or Best in the Piezo driver sets the dpi.  Am I understanding
you correctly?

I am using the export feature in Photoshop to initiate the piezo 
driver. The way this system works, you use the Epson dialogue features 
to select the paper size and the dpi settings. The dpi settings in the 
piezo driver then correspond to the selections made in the Epson 
driver. The Cone piezo pro/24 has good, better and best choices. 
However, I don't believe that those choices are available in the 
plug-in version. 

Any suggestions you have are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Stan
