Why would I want to waste paper and ink when I have no real place to put anything bigger up??

what dot size did you choose? 7mm or 10?

That's fair enough mate - not having a dig. but the whole point of the dot effect is that you have a big picture that close up just looks like dots, then you stand far away and see the picture.

Yeah thats cool. I just wanted to try it out. Don't really have any good pictures that would work well big and I wouldn't know where to put it up anyway. That's 7mm on that one.
