DPI measures the number of printed dots contained in one inch. It is mainly used for printers, scanners and physical print quality.
PPI measures digital pixel density of an image or display. It describes how many pixels fit into one inch.

| DPI | PPI Equivalent |
|---|---|
| 72 DPI | 72 PPI |
| 96 DPI | 96 PPI |
| 150 DPI | 150 PPI |
| 300 DPI | 300 PPI |
| 600 DPI | 600 PPI |
DPI is used for printing dots while PPI is used for digital pixels. They are related but describe different measurements.
For digital images prepared for print, DPI and PPI values are often numerically equivalent when no scaling occurs.
300 DPI is commonly recommended for high-quality professional printing.
Higher DPI improves print detail only when the original image has enough resolution to support it.
Resolution describes total pixels in an image, while DPI describes density when printing that image.
