remember that it is 1440x720 dpi with 3 (Stylus 600/800) or 6 (?) colors
(new Epson Photo-Printers, Stylus Photo had 720 dpi).
This means a much lower resulotion for "real color"!
One pixel has to contain many dots (which are in 1440 dpi) to reproduce the
color.
So the high resolutions are not the "real resolution" for color prints.
