(Anyone know why laser printers seem to only run at 600 DPI? Every one I've checked (and I've l looked at dozens of models) specifies 600 DPI as the native resolution.

(You may see units that advertise higher DPIs, but if you check the specs you'll find that's always "enhanced" or "synthesized" or "interpolated" or some other way of saying "not 600 DPI".))
I see the 600 DPI in terms of single dimensional resolution. So I'm guessing that 600 DPI is the current limit for letter-sized paper in terms of horizontal resolution. All I know is that printers are the only real things in computers nowadays that make my blood boil.
