It is the term used when we want to check the result of a printer... dpi means: Dots per inch. more dpi means that the printing power of a printer is or the result of the print is much more clear or have a high resolution. This term is also used in visual graphics... more dpi means that the more clear image or picture on our monitor screen, so that the result would be more better.
DPI most generally refers to Dots Per Inch, a term applied to printing resolution. Specifically, it identifies the number of dots a printer can place on a page in one inch. Higher DPI means more detail and definition in a printed page.

A related term, PPI, or Pixels Per Inch, is applied to video screens. PPI and "dot pitch" both indicate how much detail can be seen on a computer monitor or TV screen. Again, high PPI (and low dot pitch) indicates more detail and definition in video images depending upon the resolution of the video device.

DPI can also refer to Deep Packet Inspection, which is applied to networks to analyze "packets" as they are routed through a network. Sometimes the packets are modified or deleted if they contain harmful computer instructions.

DPI in computing terms means Dots Per Inch. It relates to the number of dots on each side of a 1 inch square, that are used to construct an image either on screen or on paper through a printer. The higher the DPI number - the finer the detail of the image.
