I think this is a bit of a distortion. For _most_ purposes, 300dpi should be adequate. For high-resolution printing commercially, 600 or even greater may be desired. I'm not sure that once you get to 1200+ that it gets so easy to see further improvement in the visible quality, unless you're talking about printing to a very large format. Greg
