300 DPI: Industry standard for high-quality prints, ensuring sharp and detailed images. Ideal for close-up viewing.

Lower Resolutions: Suitable for large prints viewed from a distance, such as billboards. High resolution becomes less noticeable with increased viewing distance.

Printer Resolution: Takes precedence. Images with lower resolution will be adjusted to the printer's default resolution during printing.

Lower Limit: Printing at a resolution lower than the printer's is not possible. The printer will enlarge the image if necessary.

Previewing Print Size:

• Go to "View" > "Print Size".
• Use the "Hand" or "Zoom" tool and click "Print Size" in the options bar.
• The image will be displayed again at its approximate printed size, as specified in the "Document Size" area of the "Image Size" dialog box.
• Monitor size and resolution will affect the on-screen print size.
