Print size of 4000x6000
2:3 - 4000×6000 24MP Portrait
4000x6000 at print. Inches = pixels / DPI, cm = inches x 2.54. The table below lists the physical size at every common DPI and the nearest paper it fits, so you can choose between sharp close prints (300 DPI) and large posters (150 DPI) without guessing.

Formula
inches = pixels / DPI
cm = inches x 2.54
// 4000x6000 at 300 DPI: 13.33" x 20.00" (33.87 x 50.80 cm)
// at 150 DPI: 26.7" x 40.0" - use for posters
Which DPI should I pick?
- 300 DPI - photo prints, brochures, reading distance < 60cm. Sharp at arm's length. 4000x6000 is 13.33x20.00in.
- 150 DPI - posters, banners, viewing beyond 1m. Larger but slightly softer. 26.7x40.0in.
- 72 DPI - screen proof only; prints 55.6x83.3in but visibly pixelated.
- 600 DPI - fine art or small text overlays; 6.67x10.00in, doubles file size.
Scaling tip - when pixels are short
Need a larger print than the table allows? Do not upscale blindly. Instead halve the DPI (300 -> 150) to double inches, or pick a larger master (e.g. 8000x12000) and keep DPI at 300. Upscaling adds no real detail - viewing distance hides it for posters but not for hand-held prints.
