300 DPI Print Size

300 DPI print size is calculated by dividing image pixels by 300 in each direction. A 3000 by 2400 pixel image can print about 10 by 8 inches at 300 DPI.

Simple formula

Width in inches equals pixel width divided by DPI. Height in inches equals pixel height divided by DPI. The same formula works for centimeters after converting inches to centimeters.

When lower DPI can work

Posters, wall graphics, and banners are often viewed from a distance. They can tolerate lower effective PPI than a label, menu, card, or detailed product insert.

How print shops can use it

A clear 300 DPI print size result helps staff explain why a file is acceptable, risky, or too small without relying on subjective screenshots.
