   One shouldn't forget, in this context (1) the inter- and intra-printer  
   reproducability of the bit density (2) paper shrinkage. Such differences
   are liable to wipe out the difference between 72 ppi and 72.27 ppi.

Also paper slippage.  I've run both paper and transparencies through it and
they don't like up when I hold them up to each other.
