Tim This was discussed a while back and I did some simple tests with lens chart type line pair grids. I discovered that the Epson claim that 180ppi is the optimum is basically correct BUT a file at 360 ppi does resolve a series of 1 pixel lines - I needed a lupe to see them and considered the 180 ppi file as good for my eyesight when printed with an Epson 1290 on Epson semigloss photo paper. Why not try some simple tests yourself and let us know your findings? Paul Lawrence --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
