Adjust dot size as necessary in Epson driver?

Hi,

I've been playing with Gutenprint 5.2 beta driver for Epson R1800.
I've noticed the 'Adjust dot size as necessary' option.  It defaulted
to 'No'.  What are pros and cons of setting it to 'Yes'?

Thanks,
Alex

It only matters if you set the density to a very high value -- it will
drop down to the next larger drop size.  It's almost never of any use,
and will be going away.
