Improve the quality of printed iPhoto books
Authored by: scottm4321 on Jul 20, '05 12:21:52PM

I work at a print shop and I'm really wondering if the books every even hit a printing press. I don't see how it could be done so cheaply unless they were ganged up on a 40" - 60" press? Those monsters are expensive to run. Maybe they're done on large format printers. These don't require as high a dpi than a press. I have an Epson 9600 that gets ok results from images as low as 100 dpi, though I wouldn't recommend going that low. Also there's the option of digital presses, thought they would require the higher dpi settings. As a printer I would never consider using a graphics as low as 150, it's just not going to cut it.
