DPI (Dots Per Inch)

DPI, or Dots Per Inch, is a measurement that indicates the resolution of printed images or the sensitivity of a computer mouse. In printing, a higher DPI means more dots of ink are used per inch, resulting in a sharper, more detailed image. For screens, it reflects how precisely a mouse can register movement. Higher DPI settings on a mouse allow for more accurate control, which is particularly useful in gaming or graphic design. In essence, DPI impacts the clarity and precision of both printed materials and cursor movement on digital devices.
