DPI Measurement in Printing

The full form DPI, Dots Per Inch in printing is used to measure the resolution of a printed document or digital scan. The higher the density of the dot, the higher the resolution of the printer or scan. Typically, the DPI is a measure of the number of dots that can be placed within a distance of 1 inch ( 2.54 cm). 

The higher DPI produces more detailed and clear images. A higher resolution image provides more information to the printer and printing devices. You will get more detailed and greater resolution from an image with higher DPI settings.

Contrarily, the lower DPI produces an image with fewer dots in the printing. No matter how effective your printer is, a low-resolution image does not provide sufficient raw data to produce superior-quality images. The ink can spread on the image, making the edges look blurred.

Therefore, the DPI measurement of a printer often needs to be considerably higher than the pixel-per-inch measurement of a video display to produce clear images. This is due to the limited range of colours of each dot generally available on a printer.

DPI Full Form in Mouse

DPI full form in the mouse is Dots Per Inch. It is a measure that defines the overall sensitivity of the mouse you are using.  The higher the DPI of your mouse, the faster your cursor will move. A mouse with a higher DPI setting reacts to smaller movements.

However, a higher DPI is not always a precise option as you certainly don't want the cursor of your mouse to move across to your screen when you even slightly move your mouse.

DPI and mouse sensitivity are two different terms. DPI represents the capability of hardware whereas sensitivity is a software setting. A low-quality mouse with low sensitivity would only make your cursor movement rough and inaccurate. Contrarily, a mouse with higher DPI  with lower sensitivity settings will result in accurate and smooth movement of your mouse.

Higher DPI is easy to use when dealing with higher resolution screens. Low-resolution screens do not require higher DPI. For example, if you are playing a game on a higher resolution screen, a higher mouse DPI would enable you to move your cursor smoothly across the screen without moving your mouse to the extremes of your mousepad or desk.
