I recently read [jrista's][jr] **marvellous [q&a][1]** from [photo.stackexchange](http://photo.stackexchange.com/). While the question is titled [***"How do I generate high quality prints with an ink jet printer?"***][1] it covers DPI & PPI relationship to quite an extent and has real-world print examples. Current Q&A contents: - [Summary][2] - [Detailed Explanation][3] - Empirical Studies: - [Does PPI really matter?][4] - [Extreme digital upscaling][5] [1]: http://photo.stackexchange.com/q/1715/1913 (How do I generate high quality prints with an ink jet printer?)
