For photo print scans:
Printed photos provide a much larger original to scan from than either slides or negatives. Therefore, the
scanning resolution required for prints is much lower than slides and
negatives. For example, a 35mm slide scanned at 2000 dpi will produce the
same size digital image as a 6x9 print scanned at 300 dpi. In almost all
cases, it makes very little sense to scan photo prints at a resolution higher
than 300 dpi. Scanning photo prints at higher resolutions tends to
accentuate imperfections and texture from the paper as well as dust and scratches.
We have created a table that will provide additional details about each scanning
resolution for printed photos. Click
