<p>I seek comments on what is optimum printer resolution setting: Lightroom suggests 240 DPI but I wonder if better results would be achieved at other values. <br>
Note that my question here is not about the <strong>resolution</strong> of the printed image but rather about its <strong>darkness.</strong><br>
In particular I question if a lower DPI setting would result in a more “translucent” ink layer that would in turn yield an overall lighter tone (ie by allowing more of the paper white to show through).<br>
Other than DPI setting is there any other setting that regulates the “density” of the ink laid down such that the finished image contains more (or less) of the paper whiteness?<br>
I am printing colour images from Lightroom to an Epson 3800. Original image files is RAW from Canon 5D converted in DxO and imported into LR. Monitor and printer are calibrated. ICC files specific to the paper and printer are used.</p>
