How large a print can you get?

When you print a photo, you can set the printer to print at a variety of sizes, which is expressed as dots per inch (dpi), or sometimes called pixels per inch (ppi). Different desktop printers vary as to how much resolution they require for the same print sizes. Some printers can produce crisp sharp prints at only about 150 dpi, other printers require 300 dpi to produce quality prints. Experi- ment with your printer to see what kind of prints it can produce.

Use this table as a guide to see how large a print you can make from your photo:
