Epsons have been 360 DPI for about as long as they have been making inkjet printers, and i think even some of their dot matrix printers are the same. you can download HP and Epson programmer's guides for device driver writers for free. the firmware uses hints from the incoming data stream to better distribute the actual droplets. as a programmer writing to it as a graphics device, it has only the 360 DPI addressable resolution. some HP printers are 600 and 1200. this doesn't mean much since then you have to take over your own dithering when working in the higher resolution modes. at 300dpi on the HP printers, the device drivers and firmware do all the hard work.

Are there any desktop printer able to match this? I've heard Epson Photo printers are around 250, although I have no idea where this data can be obtained.
