Typically among DTP applications, creating a PDF for Screen/Web produces a 72 DPI low resolution PDF that is suitable for viewing on the Internet in a web browser. Creating a PDF for a "Printer" would apply both to your local desktop printer or a Commercial Printer. The resolution for this type of PDF usually defaults to 300 DPI but can range up to 2400 DPI or higher depending on individual printer requirements. Anything over 300 DPI for your local desktop printer is pretty much just wasting ink/toner though.
