I print everthing i do at 720 dpi this will be slow on a grenadier but gives a much better finish, i prefer it to look good rather than print quick. I also find if i print to quick it does not dry quick enough for the take up roller.

Russell.

I don’t do any large format printing but my understanding was that it was down to viewing distance, having said that if Russell prints everything at 720dpi then that spoils what I thought.

well i dont know ur print modes, but might be similar as they are the same head
On the JV3-160S (not the SP which is different)
i used to print everything at 720×720 (8 pass) uni, I print everything else at 720 but now i print banners at 540×360 (4 pass) uni/bidirection as it doesn’t matter for banners if they are lower quality, you save a bit of ink and printer goes faster, banners are what they are.

p.s. added passes and mode.
