I noticed something that I can not explain. I scanned a 35mm slide using a Nikon Coolscan 8000 film scanner. The scan was done at 4000 ppi. I made some corrections (levels, contrast, brightness and unsharp mask) with PhotoShop 7. I then printed the image on my HP Deskjet 970 printer at the full 4000 ppi. I then changed the size of the image (re-sampled) with PhotoShop to 300 ppi and printed the image again. Both images were printed the same size (4 X 6). When reviewing the two prints I noticed that the printed detail looked identical, but the 300 ppi print was much warmer in color. It had much less blue and more yellow / red overall. I would appreciate any comments or information that explains why this occurs. Thanks Norm.
