How can I get the best print from my photo?
"Image resolution" is a fancy term that refers to how many pixels will fit inside each inch of paper when printed. In order for you to get a premium quality Print, your photo needs to have a certain number of pixels. Our software will notify you if your image does not meet our minimum requirement, but here’s a helpful chart that gives you the minimum and optimal resolution for every size we offer. If you still aren’t confident, email us at info@mpix.com and a member of our team will take a look at your photos before you submit your order.
