small prints using the recommended ppi from the digi, well, that's an

I wouldn't recommend any less than 200ppi unless you're printing
something to be viewed from afar.
Normally I use 360ppi for printing: for inkjet printers I've seen
recommendations that for best results you should print at a whole
fraction of the dpi rating (in my case 360 is 1/4 of 1440). I think
this is largely because you have better control over resampling in
Photoshop than you might have in the printer driver.
