Important notes about image size vs. dpi
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.
To choose dpi
1 Press Setup menu/Print mode menu/Dots per inch and select 300 or 600 as the
resolution.
The resolution at which you save your image file affects the size of the printed image as
shown in the following table:
