Any of the "image quality" advocates up for doing a comparison test?
I've already done it. Same image at 200, 300, and 360 ppi. Showed the
prints to some photographer friends. None could see any difference. I
standardized on 300, because I had to pick something and it worked well
for my other requirements. As for printing speed comparisons, Epson
printers are all so effing slow that I start the printing and go off
somewhere and do something else for a few hours, so it doesn't matter to
me.

If people can't tell the difference between a print at 200, 300, or
360ppi, that says something about the printer, doesn't it? It sounds
like the printer in question has failed to produce discernibly better
results at resolutions over 200ppi. But I'm certain that there are
affordable printers out there that will produce better results if fed
documents at greater than 200ppi.
