To convert inches to pixels, you have to multiply inches by resolution. For example, a 4 inches wide object scanned at 300 DPI will have 1200 pixels on a computer screen. Most scanners allow you to change the DPI resolution from the software. If the scanned object is printed, then you have to scan it at the same resolution as the printer’s resolution.
To find out how many pixels there are in an inch, multiply 1 inch by scanner resolution. Assuming the scanner resolution is set to 300 DPI, one inch will have 300 pixels on a computer screen.
