"nope." applies to this instead of that. OK, then what does Floyd say a pixel is? Your statement was very good. My point is that nospam's claim to having said the same thing is not true. He didn't. -- Floyd L. Davidson http://www.apaflo.com/ Ukpeagvik (Barrow, Alaska) |

Commercial print resolution about 5 megapixels?

wrote: The printer is actually printing 360 pixels per inch. Not 150, not 300, not any other imaginary number you want to come up with. not if you send it 150 ppi, it isn't. it can upsample to 360 ppi but that isn't going to regenerate details that aren't there. You are misunderstanding what "pixel" means. nope. A pixel is an addressable element of a digital picture. It is not a measure of information content. Now, it happens that there is a maximum information content set by the number of pixels so that a pixel can represent just under one half cycle of spacial information in each dimension, but resampling to a higher number of pixels does in fact create more pixels even though it doesn't create more information. that's a longer version of what i said. "nope." applies to this instead of that. nope. what he said is the same as what i said, but in a lot more words. |

John McWilliams: Who maintained the Epson 3800 could print at 150 dpi? Floyd L. Davidson: At least two people have said that it could. You and nospam. John McWilliams: Proof, please. If not message number, date and time of posting. Sandman: Proof? Haha, this is Floyd, remember. He doesn't deal with such things :-D Here's what nospam said: "if you send it a 150 ppi image, they will." / nospam- 05/11/2015 That was, of course, not in relation to the Epson 3800 What nospam said is hilariously wrong, and it was absolutely about Epson printers. And that is the proof asked for. It was not about the Epson 3800. Learn to read. -- Sandman |
