Why are low dpi printers more expensive?

I also have a Canon 10D and I use the
Canon i9900 printer and it prints the
best glossy photos I have ever seen from
a inkjet. Sorry but I got sick of
cloged cartriges.

Try reading about the i9950 in the thread above and see if you're
still so confident ;-)
 
Hecate, FYI in Japan the printer is called the PM-4000PX. It comes with CD
printer tray but no gray balancer.

For the most part,you are right! The only real benefit of the higher dpi is
in the fine details in the darker areas,like shadows.As I said to a
photographer it "IS" noticeable.For most people they will not see it!I guess
I should have said there is a great deal of difference to me!
As for Epsons model numbers,the R210=US R200,R310= US R300.It is a bit
confusing.Canon does somewhat the same thing,but most of the Euro versions
do cd/dvd printing,so there IS more of a difference.

What an amazing feat - you claim to see a difference in the very region
where it is at its minimum and demonstrably zero, the shadows, yet fail
to mention any visible difference at all where a slight benefit actually
exists - the highlights.

Do you see everything in negative or is it just inkjet prints? ;-)

As a photographer I have to say the 1440dpi prints from my 870 are good
enough for my own uses. I'm not confident enough in the archival qualities
to sell prints off of it, however.
