Not when it dithers over blocks of 64 or more.


What do you mean? If I print at 360 on the Epson 3800 (head is 1440)
the dithering for a print dot should be no more than 4x4 (16 dithered
dots). [not counting dot 'edge' to dot 'edge' dithering]. Why would it
dither to 64 blocks?


So how many colour steps and gray steps do you get at 16 dithered
dots?
