Digital BW, The Print

Mark,

I know you were asking about silver prints, but just as a point of
reference... I was discussing this issue once with Jon Cone, and he said
they print all their digital print editions at one time, because of
variations in paper/ink from one batch to the next, changes in
technology, etc. The only way to ensure they're identical is do them all
together when you've got all the materials in hand.

I'd like to know if serious silver printers print ALL of their entire 
edition at one time, in one run? 

I'm not talking about art fair guys; I'm talking about guys who are 
represented by galleries, who are selling prints for a grand and 
higher.

I know one guy that I can call today. I'll report back.

I just want to know if silver guys are printing "on demand", ie 
when they get an order, they make a print. If so, how could all of 
the prints in a given edition ever match? I'd think it would be quite 
impossible.
