If I'm hiring a print graphic designer, they need to know how the press works, how to set up the files for correct output, and basically what's possible with the technology available.
If I'm hiring a web designer, they need to know how html/css work and have the ability to actually put together a usable webpage.
If I'm hiring a developer, they need to know how to use photoshop enough to cut up a file, and they need enough of an eye for design that they can distinguish the finer details of a design to translate those into a functional page. No "Arial looks like Univers so I used Arial"
No position lives in a a silo, everyone must be cross-functional to a degree. If you're calling yourself a webdesigner and don't know how to take your artwork into HTML, learn. You'll grow as a designer.
