High/low resolution

Non-PRO English to Finnish Tech/Engineering Printing & Publishing Printers
Referring specifically to the dpi resolution of the print-out of a digital photograph (any print-out I guess). I have found for high resolution "teräväpiirtoinen" as an adjective and "dpi-tarkkuus" as a noun. I need it as an adjective. And in both cases, what would low-res be? Thanks!

Thanks, but... I still need it as an adjective.

'Teräväpiirtoinen' is used for hi-res TV, not for print-out. 'dpi-tarkkuus' does not mean hi-res, it just means 'resolution in dpi' (that can be high or low).

hi-res = 'korkearesoluutioinen' (adj), 'korkea resoluutio' (noun)

low-res = 'matalaresoluutioinen' (adj), 'matala resoluutio' (noun)

In text, when the reference is clear, you can use more comfortable expressions: 'tarkka kuva' = hi-res print-out,´'vedos' = low-res print-out, draft.

-tarkkuuksinen

Tarkkuus (or tarkkuuksinen) would be preferable over resoluutio (or resoluutioinen), because it's a Finnish word.
