I'm addressing the The Myth of no-more-than-300dpi (or something x LPI) for an 8-bit (Combination Tone) TIFF.

Yes, there are better formats–application, knowledge, and workflow permitting.

I posted the link to that printer's suggestion of 500-900ppi for Combination Tone TIFF to illustrate the term. The bit.ly/hcbcU5 address is to look at the affects of resolution & line screen. In a post PDF world we may have forgotten the occasional need for high resolution TIFFS.
