Well Blurb says that 300ppi is ideal. I plan to investigate that printer 
more fully, but really that is a defacto standard. What is
missed in the discussions and probably equally important is the need for 
correct sharpening to be applied before submission.
Cheers

Any suggestions for optimum pxi res for the HP 5000? I do all my home 
printing, on an Epson 1280 at 360 pxi.

about Color Management already. Summarize in two steps:

1 - Use "Web Coated V2" (builtin in PS) or HP 5000 profile to softproof your 
images
2 - convert your images to sRGB before importing to Blurb software.
