Actually, I based that statement on a Canon EOS D350. We have a Hewlett Packard A1 inkjet at work, and when testing it, we went out and took pictures in various modes. Two (both of a statue on some grass) were taken at the highest res for the camera. One as a RAW image, and one with JPEG compression. When printed out (at A2 size), there were noticable artifacts on the grass with JPEG compression.
Having said that, I didn't take the photo, so only have the other technician's word that he was using a high quality JPEG setting. Sadly, he kept the file as well.
