Digital BW, The Print

Wendy, 

I seem to recall seeing something about the actual size of the prints.  Does it produce an 8x10 or is the print a little smaller?

  Cathy,

  I have it - it's the Olympus P-400 dye sublimination printer. I am very
  pleased with the output - there is however, no true black and white. Mine
  come out with a slightly greenish tint, barely noticeable until compared
  with a true black and white print, so it works for me. There are no custom
  ribbon sets or modifications one can make, however, that changes the
  black and white output - I looked extensively and failed to find any.
  Let me know if I can
  answer any other questions.  - Wendy
