I do wish folks would stop saying that when it's patently not so.

I have two identical graphics here, one printed at 300 and the other at
600 dpi, when examined once printed, they are quite different in the
colour and depth of the grey, and more importantly the 300 image has a lot
less dots. Less dots = Less toner.

There are a number of reasons...

1) Because I believe (And know) it saves toner when printing draft copies.

2) Because SWMBO handles the consumables management in our home office
also knows it save toner. (She does masses more printing that I ever do).

3) Because the evidence in front of my eyes says it saves toner.

4) Just to be a recalcitrant, and because of the above, just because I
want to.

Now that all over and done with.

Luv and kisses to everyone.

Dave
