[. . . ] The Nikon Color Management System used in Nikon Scan employs ICC profiles. The density of dots or pixels that make up an image, measured in dots per inch (dpi) or pixels per inch (ppi); the resolution of Windows monitors, for example, is 96 ppi. The greater the density of dots or pixels, the higher the resolution and the greater the capacity to express detail. Computer monitors typically have a resolution of 72 ppi, 90 ppi, or 96 ppi, while printers may have resolutions of 300 dpi, 600 dpi, 1200 dpi, or 2400 dpi. [. . . ]
