[Digital BW] Re:Darkroom vs. Inkjet -Then Why inkjet ?

2004-05-19 by sl91911

Bob,
The url is www.whcc.com . Phone # is 800-252-5234.
If the goal of those on this forum is to produce good BW prints from
digital, people on the forum should be relating their results with
this and other labs. Use of an inexpensive quick turn-around lab is a
legitimate path while we all await a real BW inkjet from a major
company . You can search the forums on dpreview to see the comments on
many of these online labs, but they invariably deal with color output.
