Worflow Upscaling Image in C1

Are there any experience or suggestions on who to up scale (editing, sharpening ...) an image in C1? The goal is to create a print of 24 x 16 inch (60 cm x 40 cm). The starting file is 16 MP RAW (14 bit) file.

Thanks in advance.

  Capture One can upres 250%, that's the limit.
  The Algorithm is designed to give you the absolute best results with just one conversion from RAW to Processed so there's no tips/tricks that you need.
  The only suggestion I can make is to process to TIFF (obviously not JPEG) and turn off sharpening so you can fine tune it before you print, unless your printing direct from Capture One... and that's a whole other thread discussion. 😉

  Hi Drew, Thanks for the fast response. Do you have any advice for sharpening of enlarged images? Is there a higher amount of sharpening necessary?
  
  Best regards.

  A large part of that is going to be subjective. Another factor is the specific file type and final Print method. The rest is dependent upon the image content.
  Unfortunately there are no real hard and fast rules here.
