• Mega pixel- a photo composed of three to four mega pixels will have a better quality that a photo with only one mega pixel.
• Dots Per Inch (DPI) - this term is used to describe quality of the computer monitor and printer. Specifically, laser printers have more dpi resolution than monitors. Hence, higher the dpi resolution means better quality.
