It is best to consider the resolution of the printer when you choose a

resolution for the image you are creating. You can use the following

guidelines to determine the image size for printing:

• For a 300-dpi printer, use an image that is 72 to 120 ppi.

• For a 600-dpi printer, use an image that is 125 to 170 ppi.

• For a 1200-dpi printer, use an image that is 150 to 200 ppi.

Image color and lightness

Computer monitors display color by combining red, green, and blue

light on the screen. Color printers, however, use a combination of cyan,

magenta, yellow, and black inks. The differences between these two

color modes can cause images to appear darker on paper than on the

screen. As you become familiar with how your printer handles color,

you can adjust your images to compensate for these differences. If the

printed image appears too dark, you can adjust the brightness or

contrast.

Paper quality

The texture and color of the paper used for printing affect the quality

of the printed image. For example, porous paper can cause colors to

bleed into each other, colored paper can alter the image colors, and

off-white paper can reduce the contrast and vibrancy of the image

colors. For recommendations on which paper to use for printing, refer

to the documentation supplied with your printer.

File formats

Saving your image in the PspImage format provides the most flexibility

if you plan to print your image on a personal printer.
