PSA: My old shop used to print everything at 300 dpi for shirts.
A client brought in a file from a designer last month, it was set to 150. The print came out way sharper than my usual stuff. Blew my mind. Anyone else stuck on a high dpi setting for too long?

Way sharper" might just be your eyes playing tricks. Higher DPI gives the printer more data to work with, so 300 should always have the potential to be better. You might have just had a bad print profile before.

Man, I feel that. I've totally been in that spot where you tweak one tiny setting and suddenly everything looks way better, even if the numbers say it shouldn't. Printers can be so finicky. What kind of printer are you working with?
