Tell me if I'm right: If I have a film scanner that scans a 35 mm image
with 3600 dpi, would that limit me to a maximum print size of 12" (length,
using 300 dpi printing as a "photo-real" minimum and maximum print
resolution)?


With a soft image you may be able to print it as low as 100dpi, if you need
razor sharp lines then aim for 300dpi - That said it really depends on the
subject matter and the quality of the original image.
