What 1800×1200 is for
1800 × 1200 is the one size on this list defined by paper rather than screens. At 300 DPI it is precisely 6 × 4 inches, the standard photo print that every lab and home printer handles.
Because 6 × 4 is 3:2, it also matches most camera sensors exactly, so a DSLR photograph resizes to it without losing anything at the edges.
