I'm computer illiterate. I don't understand https://superuser.com/a/1453651, it uses too many esoteric cant!I use a HP LaserJet Pro MFP M426fdn printer at work. It offers 4 settings for Print Quality, just like the different printer below.- 1. Is ProRes 1200 higher quality than FastRes 1200?
- 2. The higher the LPI, the better the quality, correct? Thus ProRes 1200 (180 lpi) is the best?
I haven't gotten my eyes tested since COVID. But documents printed with ProRes 1200 (180 lpi) look WORSE to me than FastRes 1200!!! How's this possible?
