I want to print color image with 200dpi printer?
How can quality of printed image be improved?
Please help....

Depends on the image, and size you are trying to achieve. Do you want to enlarge the image, or srhink it to fill the page, or just a specific size. Also what format file does the printer take, postscript, or some other weirder printer language.

Basically however you can set the -density 200 then -resize the image so that it is appropriate for the page you are printing on. For example 4 inches across ⇒ 1600 pixels at 200 dpi, so -resize 1600x will make the image 4 inches.

Thanks for reply.
Actually I have to print .png color image with 200dpi b/w printer without resizing.
After printing, image quality is very bad. I want to improve image quality.
How can it be done...

In what way is it bad? Again what format is the printer printing?

It does not look good. I am not sure about format of printer printing.
Is more clear image posssible?

It would be very hard to determine what is wrong, without knowing in what way it is bad.
