Well, this is a rather impossible question to answer - as you have asked it. The scanner can scan up to an 8x10" photo at 600 PPI. So, doing the maths, if you want to print at a nominal 300 DPI then you could conceivable print a 16x20 without any further manipulation. On the other hand, if you scan a 2x2" print at 600 PPI, then printing at 300 DPI will render a 4x4" print, right? But on the OTHER other hand, digital images can be easily enlarged quite a bit with post processing software. Also, if you want to print poster-sized images then often 240 or even 200 DPI resolution is quite acceptable. Hope that helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Well, if you scan at 600 dpi and print at 300 dpi the simple answer would be double the print size (i.e. - a 3x5" original print could be printed out as a 6x10" print), but in truth the output print could well be done at 200 dpi (so you'd get a 9x15") plus the enlargement functions in post processing software can do a good job of larger ratios. I doubt it would be possible to turn a 3x5 print into a poster , but electronic frames (or displaying on your HDTV) should be able to display these without problems.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.At 600 dpi about double at 300 dpi, original size
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.it scans at 600 dpi, if you need more you'll want a flatbed scanner.
