> By the way there are Ink Jet Printers out there that

Only that the printer can print only a dot of a single color:
 - either cyan, magenta, yellow or black
 - to print a different color (including shades of gray), it will use
   many of these dots to emulate a single picture "pixel"
 - for 101 shades of gray, it needs 100 dots (a grid of 10 x 10 dots)
 => real resolution: 2400 / 10 = 240 pixels per inch with 101 shades of gray
 [this explanation is slightly inaccurate, because Inkjets use a different
  error diffusion dithering technology than Laserjets]

Bear in mind, that even this Agfa (which is an industry standard Imagesetter,
see http://www.c-doc.com/agfa_avantra_series.htm) does print only 300 pixels per
inch (so called LPI). [Its max LPI is between 400-500, but it usually prints at
300 LPI.]

So what chances do you believe exist, that an office printer matches the
resolution of the Imagestter?

I would clearly answer NIL!
