Question
I'm scanning color neg. into my computer at 720 dpi. then when I send them to the printer they are only 150 dpi. Needless to say thats not giving me optimum quality.
Also whats the best format to use for high quality prints? tiff, jpeg or what. hope you can help.

Answer
That all depends on your printer. There should be an option in your printer driver to change the resolution.

As far as file formats go, if you use a JPEG with NO compression, you should be OK.
