Hello everyone,

I have spent some time on the internet studying about dpi, ppi,
resolution for a scanner and printer and digital image processing but
It's all very confusing for me since I'm a total amateur. So here's a
question for you pro's:-D

If you know that I have an all-in-one printer (a href="http://
www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/store_access.do?product_code=Q8418A%23ABA&template _type=product_detail&jumpid=re_r602_dp_artgen_na_i pg_jan09_edtfive"HP
Photosmart C4680/a) that has following specs:
scanner resolution= 1200dpi
color print resolution= 4800x1200 from 1200dpi input data

and a paper photo (25x20cm) that I want to scan and print with least
quality loss as possible to produce an exact copy of the same size.

Which settings should I use and why? I can choose to scan at
100,200,300,600,1200,...dpi. But what I'm wondering is if my printer
can handle the higher scan settings.

Thanks in advance for teaching me

geez - you have room in your darkroom for a scanner and a printer? Wow!
Exactly where do you place these relative to where the enlarger is
positioned? And given their placement, how do you integrate their use with
that of the enlarger?

Apparently I posted this in the wrong group.


Apparently you did.

Sorry if I stepped on your long toes. Are all darkroom guys so
frustrated?? Geez geez pff. Go outdoors and see some light or you'll
turn into a vampire one day. **** man. What a way to answer someone
who asked a polite question. And go ask your wife for some sex, if
you have one!


Well, like they say, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out!

tsk, tsk, tsk...temper, temper, temper.

You digital guys always so easy to lose your cool? No sense of humor?
Can't take a dig or two? Really don't know to which newsgroup you are
posting? You mean you really don't have a scanner and a printer in your
darkroom? What a pity - I thought I'd learn something new here! Why so
sensitive? Tell me - what exactly do you actually see between those 0's and
1's?
