Why would you want to print at more than 300 DPI?


So he can pixel peep IRL.

Do you really need a printer? C-Types are nicer than inkjet's imo.

It's essentially a real photographic print (ie from an enlarger) but rather than using a negative to create the print, it uses a digital file.

C Type printing Fuji Flex "paper" is awesome.

Metallic papers are fun too, depending on what you're printing.


I want to have a go with a lightjet though, like a c-type on steroids.

What do you guys think of the prima pro 9500 MkII?

As far as I'm concerned it's an injket and as such doesn't interest me. Have you read any reviews about it only? Might be worth seeing if you can get your hands on a photo that's been printed from it and inspecting the quality of the print.
