Advice please ( New Zealand)

I received a message but not sure what it means. - Hi Theo, once your machine is up and running. This is the image we were really after. Would this be possible on your machine? Designer has asked for 49Pppl…? Would it work.

Is your machine down? Do you know the customer? Did you ask them?

 

[Theo]

Good morning. My machine is old but in perfect condition. Roland Vp540. Only doing odd jobs from home as a hobby. I didn’t want to sound stupid when I saw the message so I thought I I’ll as the clever guys.

Just to clarify, are you asking what 49Pppl means? (and just to clarify, I have no idea what 49Pppl means, never seen anything like it)

Give him the answer "yes" and see where you go from there

 

[Theo]

Yes - this was the message I received -

I’m completely baffled

I did ask and apparently the designer wanted 49ppi. Thank you so much for taking the time to help. All the best from down under

You want to save the file at 120 dpi/ppi at full size and print at 720x720 on your Roland for a print/wrap on a van. 49dpi/ppi is for billboards/ large banners and rough stuff.

Texas is like the Elon Musk of signmaking...

49. Odd number to choose.

On further reflection, 125 dpi converts to 49 dpcm
