As you know perfectly well, Geoff, I am a physicist by training. ;-)

Is the 2Mpx number anything deeper than 1600x1200 resolution? This
will display on a full screen nicely on modern displays, and also will
lead to a less than 0.2 mm/px on paper at A4 size. The latter size is
less than the characteristic scale of paper surface inhomogeneities,
which is 0.3 mm for pretty high quality paper, AFAIK. Is that all, or
is there anything deeper?
