How do you change the Sony Cybershot DSC-P10 settings to capture images that are 300 dpi?

Is it possible to change the settings on this camera to reflect a high-rez photo?How do you change the Sony Cybershot DSC-P10 settings to capture images that are 300 dpi?
Cameras all have a default DPI setting - different for each brand - but you can override that setting in an image editor when you make prints. That's all the DPI setting is: in instruction for the printer. DPI doesn't say anything about the quality of the picture file itself.

The Sony DSC-P10 is limited to 5-megapixels, with a maximum resolution of 1944 x 2592.

At 300 DPI, your prints will be:

1944/300 = 6.5 inches by

2592/300 = 8.6 inches

If you settle for a tad less DPI, you should still be able to make fantastic 8x10 inch prints.How do you change the Sony Cybershot DSC-P10 settings to capture images that are 300 dpi?
It's not the camera that determines the dpi, it is the software you use to open up the photo file. Generally, photo editing software will default to 72 dpi.
