# Upscale image to 300 DPI at a custom print size (inches)

**Use case:** 

Upscales any image to 300 DPI at the exact inches you need, e.g. a 12x14 in DTF transfer or a custom print area: set width and height in inches and the DPI, and get a transparent PNG with fine lines kept sharp. Sample: one 500x600 geometric line-art design (our own art) to 12x14 in = 3600x4200 px; trial cost $0.06.

## How it works

### 1. Sign up on Apify or log in

The AI Image Upscaler for Print: 300 DPI for POD & KDP Actor is ready to run with the inputs already set for "Upscale image to 300 DPI at a custom print size (inches)". [Sign up or log in](https://console.apify.com/create-task-from-example/4hs5ZwhvdQIwuohcY) and you'll land in Apify Console with a copy of this exact task.

### 2. Start the "Upscale image to 300 DPI at a custom print size (inches)" task

The AI Image Upscaler for Print: 300 DPI for POD & KDP Actor will start running based on the input automatically. You can also change all the input fields, like image urls, print target, and more, to match your specific use case.

### 3. Receive the "Upscale image to 300 DPI at a custom print size (inches)" output

Monitor the progress in real time. You will be notified as soon as your dataset is complete and ready for review. Each result includes data such as #, status, download, and more.

### 4. Integrate into your workflow

The final output is delivered in JSON, CSV, or Excel format, ready to be plugged into your workflow. You can also [run the "Upscale image to 300 DPI at a custom print size (inches)" task via API](https://apify.com/vncntlabs/print-ready-upscaler.md).

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [AI Image Upscaler for Print: 300 DPI for POD & KDP](https://apify.com/vncntlabs/print-ready-upscaler.md) with a specific input configuration.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/vncntlabs/print-ready-upscaler.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
