This is the printer settings dialog in Windows 95.

Choose the desired resolution in the Resolution box. Note that not all film recorders and film types support all resolutions. Up to four different resolutions are available:

2k – Fastest selection – up to 2048 x 1680 pixels

4k – Fine resolution – up to 4096 x 3360 pixels

8k – Extra fine resolution – up to 8192 x 6719 pixels

16k – Ultra fine resolution – up to 16384 x 13438 pixels

Note that the higher the resolution, the longer it will take to print the image on the film recorder. As a rule of thumb, 2k images will take at least 30 seconds, 4k images will take at least 40 seconds, 8k images will take at least 150 seconds and 16k images will take at least 600 seconds. The exact times will vary with the complexity of the image, the speed of the interface, the film type and the type of film recorder used.
