What is dpi?

The term dpi simply means ‘dots per inch’ – this refers to the number of individual dots that the printer can produce.

Although dpi is often used by various manufacturers to promote the quality of their printers, it is important to bear in mind that the higher values are not always a true indication of better prints.

At Printerbase, we almost always note the dpi of a machine in the product description so that our customers have a fair idea as to what their prints will look like.
