Dots per inch

For best results, be sure the printer dpi setting matches the image resolution in the file you
are printing.

The printer always prints at 600 dpi, even when the dpi setting in the Print Mode menu is
set to 300 dpi. The dpi setting refers to the resolution at which your image is created, not
the resolution at which it is printed.

The resolution at which you save your image file affects the size of the printed image as
shown in the following table:
