- Actually your formula sounds pretty good. Printing colour TIFF
- scans at 150 lpi should do it. Most offset presses can't handle
- anything higher than 150 although I've heard of some that can
- handle 200 lpi. Scanning higher than 300 dpi will only increase
- the file size and slow down the Lino with little or no gain in
- output quality.
