HR in... RL?? eriC
I was wondering something related to resolution... If I wanted to print an image in the range of 20in x 30in, what would be the general resolution needed to keep the quality nice looking. I know this is a vague question, and certainly printing equipment is a major consideration too, but I just need a ballpark figure, or a way by which to get one...

6000*9000 unless I've done something wrong

Yes you did.

The resolution that a image needs to be printed at for it to "look good" is based off of average viewing distance. For example a billboard is only printed at 5 or 10 dpi because the viewed distance is tens if not hundreds of feet. You print most snapshots at 300dpi because you average viewing distance is around a foot or so. For posters where your average viewing distance is 3-4 feet printing at 150dpi produces a very nice final image. So he really only need about 3000 x 4500. Of course all this is base off of using a inkjet printer if you are going to have it done on a offset press that is a total different ball of wax.
