What quality of print is 220ppi?

Does anyone know what it means when i go to print a pic and a window comes up and says that the print will be 220ppi. What quality is this? I am tring to print a canvas at 17 x35 and I don't want to screw it up.

The generally accepted rule is that 300 ppi is recommended for viewing common size prints from 4" x 6" to 8" x 10". You can easily check that 220 ppi is good for 8" x 10" or higher. I assume your print will be 17 x 35 inches, not cm ? So yes, 220 ppi would be very good even for viewing a close distance.

  • Quality of prints has gone

    My HP 3070 is very new, needing only one change of ink so far.  Tonight the quality of prints has become terrible.  Is this maybe affter leaving the printer on for two days?  I have cleaned it too, but in vain.
    What can I do?  Change the ink  -  surely not the answer?  Maybe something else has happened.  I would appreciate help, please.

  • What brand of printer do you recommend for my imac 27?

    What brand of printer do you recommend for my imac 27 from 2009?

    I bought a Hewlett-Packard M451dn color laser jet. I'm happy with it.
    I selected it after having a horrible experience with a low-cost Xerox color laser jet.
    The things I like the best:
    Fast warm-up time. No waiting around like solid-ink printers from Xerox have.
    No odor. Solid-ink printers have a smell like baked crayons.
    Very good print quality - real Postscript.
    Duplex printing (both sides of the paper)
    I connect to it wirelessly through my Airport; I connect an ethernet cable from the printer to the Airport then my Mac communicates wirelessly.

  • Is anyone creating inkjet canvas prints at home with their Macbook Pro? What type of printer is compatible for this kind of job? Was using Hp inkjet 7300 (before switching over to mac)which uses 5 color cartridges.

    I'm an artist and just purchased my first Apple product(Macbook Pro with retina 15")...prior to was using an Hp inkjet 7300 printer, which gave me wonderful prints on canvas, paper, fabric, etc. for many years. This particular printer uses 6 color cartridges including black. Now need to know if I can still use this printer or what would be a comparable companion printer for my Macbook Pro and deliver the same high quality of prints?

    Your Mac should set it up automatically when you plug it into the computer.
    I hope I helped.

  • Quality problem printing in Windows 8.1 with CP1215

    Recently purchased new laptop with Windows 8.1 Pro.  I have had my printer for years, CP1215, via USB, without having any problems printing to it with Windows 7 Pro. I first noticed that the quality of print I receive out of my printer on the new laptop is darker.  The darkness comes from black lines going diagonally across the page.  I would estimate at approximately a 2 degree angle.  I would also estimate that the lines appear every 4th pixel row.  I have attached 2 images, printed on 2 different printers.  The one on the top is the one off of my CP1215, the one on the bottom is a color copier in my office.  I have zoomed in incredibly on the prints to show the lines.  Just never had problems with this printer in pre Windows 8.1 days.  Tried installing ljcP1215-HB-pnp-win64-en.  Tried uninstalling printer, rebooting, then installing, still same problem.  I also have another problem with printing, but suspect it is more of a Microsoft problem.  My laptop thinks a network printer goes offline, stopping and restarting the print spooler service seems to fix that.  I had to make a .bat file on my desktop to do it, it happens at least 2 times in an 8 hr work day.                        

    Hi paulie99, Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! I understand the printer isn't printing properly from Windows 8.I will be happy to help you. Check your printer driver settings. 1. On the File menu in the software program, click Print.2. Select the driver, and then click Properties or Preferences.3. Click the Paper/Quality tab.4. In the Type is or Size is list box, select the correct media type or size. Set the quality to ImageREt 2400. I have provided a document to install the Windows print driver to see if that makes a difference.Installing the Printer Software in Windows 8.1 for a USB or Network Connection. For the network printer I would setup a static IP address. Please let me know the results if you are still having issues. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.Have a great weekend! 

  • What other hp print drivers will work with the officejet pro 8600

    I have an Officejet Pro 8600 and like many others here, I am having a problem printing a custom size envelope (6x9). I did find that I can use the drivers for a deskjet 450 and setup  my 8600 using those drivers. However, the 450 6x9 does not have a portait option in the layout.
    My question is, what other hp print drivers will work in the 8600? I'm hoping one will have a 6x9 portrait layout?

    Hello wingcheck,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand you're receiving a problem printing a custom envelope size (6x9). You did state that you installed a Deskjet 450, but it doesn't come with a portrait option. I will do my best to assist you!
    First,  I need to find out your operating system on your computer? Windows or Mac?
    If you have a Windows computer and using this Deskjet 450 driver, have you checked Devices and Printers on your computer to see if you have this portrait option:
    1) Right click on the Deskjet 450, then click on Printer Preferences
    2) Very top you should see a tab called "Finishing" and look for Orientation
    3) You should see portrait, landscape, rotate by 180 degrees or mirror image.
    4) Let me know if you don't have this option on this post
    If not, then I would recommend installing a Deskjet 9800 to see if you have this option. Please follow this HP document on Installing an Alternate Print Driver in Windows 7 for a USB Cable Connection. When setting up this custom size, change the paper type to "Other Specialty Media". Please post your results, as I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Have a great night!
    Hi Cheetah .... I don't have access to my printer at the moment due to travel, but here's what I have right now. My operating system is Windows 7 64. That's not much, but it is a start. I will have the additional information for you in a day or so. Something else I discovered in the user guide, which I didn't know, is that each tray will only handle specific media. So, when I print envelopes, I will have to use Tray 1 in order to do so. 
    Now I do have another question for you. Can I have installed, 2 different sets of print drivers at the same time without it causing a conflict? I'm assuming the diffenent driver will simply show up as a different printer in the listed printers, right?? Any way, thanks for your quick response, and upon arriving home, I will follow your previous suggestions. I will also keep you posted as to my success or failure.
    Thanks

  • Poor Image Quality when Printing PDF from Office 07 using Acrobat 9 Pro Ext

    Hi there,
    Hoping to figure out why my images (jpegs, gifs, pngs, etc) seem to print in very poor quality when printing from Powerpoint and Word 2007?
    When I actually print out the pdf onto paper, the images seem fine. The image quality is also good in Word and Excel
    I did not have this problem using Office 2003 products.
    Is this a common problem? I realize that the problem maybe Office related but any help or information appreciated.
    Thanks

    If the images' file format is PNG or TIFF you could play with the compression settings available in Acrobat's Preferences.
    Edit > Preferences > select the Category "Convert to PDF".
    In the"Converting To PDF" pane, select PNG or TIFF.
    Then, click on the Edit Settings" button.
    For either image format you could try one of the Lossless compression routines.
    Be well...

  • HP psc 950 all-in-one is printing half the page...cuts off the top portion of what I am printing.

    HI!  My HP psc 950 all-in-one is printing half the page....cuts off the top portion of what I am printing.  Not sure what happened to the printer.  Came home one day and the printing wasn't the same.  Possibly the kids could have fiddled with it but no one is owning up to it.    Any solution to get the printer printing normal again?
    Thanks

    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that printed photos from your  Officejet 6600 don't have the quality that you expect.
    I have included the "Fixing Ink Streaks, Faded Prints, and Other Common Print Quality Problems" troubleshooting document.  It has detailed steps to take to improve the quality of your print jobs.

  • When I print I get multiple pages with a little print on all pages of what I want printed

    mamorse,
    Thanks for the additional info. Lets try downloading and running the Print and Scan doctor located here. It can fix a lot on its own but if not it will give us a better idea of what is going on. The weak signal is not likely the culprit (as it has been working for a good while) but we can try altering that if other steps fail.

  • Quality of print

    Hi...
    I am not a professional designer but do a lot of design work for our small business and to make Church flyers, etc. I am working on a Mac (leopard-10.5.2) and I recently made a flyer where I created an image in Photoshop CS3. I then added the image to my flyer created with InDesign CS3 and output printing to a pdf file.
    The pdf file printed beautiful on my inkjet printer. I then e-mailed the pdf file to our Church where it was printed using a PC to a laser printer. The image printed with 'stair-step' edges. I was very embarrassed, for copies were made before I saw how terrible it looked!
    The image was a black silhouette with a black to white gradient background. The gradient printed OK... the silhouette was stair-stepped.
    I have created pdf files to print on a Kinko's laser printer many times... with good results. But, I did use a Mac at Kinko's.
    Is something lost in my pdf quality when printed using a PC?
    or maybe when compressed an sent via e-mail?
    Thanks for any help you can give me... Jeanne

    Could be a number of things. Make sure when you create a PDF for print to use the high quality print preset. It could possibly be just the laser printer at your church, but most likely the quality of the PDF you made.
