I still can't get my head round this..
Surely at worst the difference should half a dot or so?
To look significantly different we must be talking about an error of a couple of pixels at least on lines?
Or where am I up a creek?
My output has been consistent from HP to Samsung to Lexmark, inkjet to laser and consistent with printshops, unless something has been broken.

t seems to me that different printers are built with differing impressions of how to define "1200dpi" -- is that in a square (1200x1200), or is that across a single line of dots, 1200 of them across but with a smaller number up and down in a vertical inch?

And one more thing which seems to make a difference -- are the 1200 dots packed "shoulder to shoulder" right across, or do some manufacturers, in an effort to claim longer toner output actually make their dots a bit smaller so there's a tiny bit of space between the dots, still providing 1200 of them to an inch, but just using smaller dots?
