Anyone out there with experience of nikSharpener!Pro Inkjet edition. I have questions and the tech support people seem to be of little use. —

I have a Epson 2100 printer (I know we all have our problems!!), which has a max print resolution of 2880×1440 dpi. I only print on Epson Premium Semigloss Photo Paper. Eye Distance to Book. I have only just received nik Sharpener!Pro Inkjet and have been experimenting.
When I set the Print slider to 2880×1440 and the Print Quality to Average, I get the message No Warnings (which is what I had expected) but when I set the Print Quality to Good (which I thought was correct for Premium Semigloss Photo Paper) I get the warning ‘Print will appear blurry’. As the printer is already laying down 2880×1440 dpi, why is the Print Quality (which I thought was for the User to set for the type of paper) affecting the warning message?

From what I understand, it’s printing at 360ppi where each pixel (picture element) is made from lots of dots – 8 in the direction the print head travels by 4 in the direction the paper travels. Make an image of one pixel in some colour and tell PS the resolution is 360ppi. Print that one pixel and look at it with some magnification – you will see individual, differently coloured, dots even though you asked it to print only one pixel.
