When printing to Qimage I don`t size the file to the final print size in photoshop I let Qimage do that step.
Correct, that's the common approach.
In Qimage I use DFS on the file in its capture sharpen stage.
I interpret that as that you create/use a filter with DFS sharpening, as an alternative to doing the Capture sharpening in Photoshop or your Raw converter. If so, that's fine, although FocusMagic in Photoshop can do real resolution enhancement by restoring the original sharpness as much as possible. DFS does acutance enhancement, not restoration of resolution by blur removal.
After Qimage resizes to final print size I set print sharpening in Qimage to 5 or 6.
Yes, assuming the image was sharp to begin with at its original size, Smart print sharpening (with DFS) will try to maintain that impression of sharpness, regardless of the blur caused by resizing.
Are you saying it is best to resize to final print size first then use DFS in Qimage then set print sharpen to 0 before printing?
No, the above mentioned workflow is what I'd do, open an already Capture sharpened (with FM) image in Qimage, let Qimage handle the resizing and Smart sharpening with DFS, amount 5 or whatever suits the medium used.
