What is dell 725 printer resolution?

Canon PIXMA Manuals MG2900 series Resolution
Resolution The data in the image you have scanned is a collection of dots carrying information about brightness and color. The density of these dots is called "resolution", and resolution will determine the amount of detail your image contains. The unit of resolution is dots per inch (dpi). Dpi is the number of dots per inch (2.5 cm). The higher the resolution (value), the more detail in your image; the lower the resolution (value), the less detail.

How to Set the Resolution You can set the resolution in Resolution on the (Scanning from a Computer) tab of the Settings dialog.
Appropriate Resolution Settings Set the resolution according to the use of the scanned image.
Item Type Use Color Mode Appropriate Resolution Color photo Copying
(Printing) Color 300 dpi Creating a postcard Color 300 dpi Saving to a computer Color 300 dpi Using on a website or attaching to e-mail Color 150 dpi Black and white photo Saving to a computer Grayscale 300 dpi Using on a website or attaching to e-mail Grayscale 150 dpi Text document (document or magazine) Copying Color, Grayscale, or Black and White 300 dpi Attaching to e-mail Color, Grayscale, or Black and White 150 dpi Scanning text using OCR Color or Grayscale 300 dpi Important

• If you double the resolution, the data size of the scanned image quadruples. If the file is too large, the processing speed will slow down significantly, and you will experience inconvenience such as lack of memory. Set the minimum required resolution according to the use of the image.

Note

• When you will be printing the scanned image by enlarging it, scan by setting a higher resolution than the recommended one above.

Had the same issue, bought some cheap inks off the internet and the printer wouldn't accept them, bought the proper dell cartridge did a head clean and it worked ok.

Hi

What is the Resolution


Refers to the sharpness and clarity of an image. The term is most often used to describe monitors, printers, and bit-mapped graphic images. In the case of dot-matrix and laser printers, the resolution indicates the number of dots per inch. For example, a 300-dpi (dots per inch) printer is one that is capable of printing 300 distinct dots in a line 1 inch long. This means it can print 90,000 dots per square inch.
For graphics monitors, the screen resolution signifies the number of dots (pixels) on the entire screen. For example, a 640-by-480 pixel screen is capable of displaying 640 distinct dots on each of 480 lines, or about 300,000 pixels. This translates into different dpi measurements depending on the size of the screen. For example, a 15-inch VGA monitor (640x480) displays about 50 dots per inch.
Printers, monitors, scanners, and other I/O devices are often classified as high resolution, medium resolution, or low resolution. The actual resolution ranges for each of these grades is constantly shifting as the technology improves.



Solution :

1.
If you not get the proper video image in your screen that mean you have remove the driver of video, for installation the driver, put the Driver -CD in rom, and start the setup is simple set you get the driver.after installing the driver restart your PC
2.
If you change any display setting then also you get the occur.for set the resolution go to the control panel and select the Display and go to setting tab set the ' Screen resolution" as before.

3.
If you still not get the display then open you PC and remove the RAM and put again,and try again.


God Luck

This is a complicated issue. You have to understand the computer term DPI, which stands for Dots Per Inch. This applies in three places:

1. when you scan, you can set this
2. when you display it on your monitor, your monitor will be usually 72 DPI or 100DPI depending on what resolution your video driver is set to
3. when you print, it depends what resolution your printer can print at. Your printer can also stretch the image onto the paper by duplicating dots as needed.

Dots = Pixels
In PixWizard, we show you the image size in Dots.

Let's assume you scan at 300 DPI. You scan an 8x10 picture. This is saved as 2400 dots (8" x 300 dots/inch) by 3000 dots (10" x 300). Let's assume your printer is 600DPI. In dots, this is 4800 (8" x 600) by 6000 (10" x 600). For best results, you should scan at 600DPI and set the print options to use a 1:1 scale when printing. Our programs can also stretch the image to fit the entire printable area of your printer.

You need the correct drivers for the printer. Go to Dell's support page and download and install the Windows 7 driver.

It's the resolution you are using to scan. Try a lower setting. for documents, 150-200 dpi is fine. That will produce smaller files.

i think you will have to take the printer to the service center as it needs servicing, there might be a problem with the cartridge holder

Hi,

Download Dell 725 Inkjet Printer driver and try to install.

Hi.
Many ways to change the size of objects on the screen exist. Use the Dell QuickSet tool to change the size of icons and toolbars. Additionally, use the Display item in Control Panel to change the font size or the dots-per-inch (DPI) setting. Changing the DPI setting changes the size of all items on the screen. If the screen resolution setting makes items too small, the DPI setting can be increased to compensate.
