Product Performance Specifications
The HP DeskJet 600 prints a 600x300 dot size. Dots are placed on a
600x300 grid. Depletion is used to remove approximately 10% of the dots
to prevent laying too much ink on the page.
In the Best mode, the paper advances at 600 DPI increments and places
dots on a true 600x600 grid. Depletion in the Best mode removes
approximately 43% of the dots.
To conserve memory, DOS fonts are stored at 300x300. REt is used to
convert them to 600x300.
When printing from MS Windows, resolution determinations are made in
the PC and then sent to the printer.
