Digital BW, The Print

There are any number that you might investigate that will do up to 
8x10 as a dedicated B&W (many more that will do bigger too)

I think an equally as important are the inks, ink/paper 
considerations.

You will probably want to use archival pigmants and the two biggies 
are Pieziotone, iQuad inks

and MIS:

The array of printers is large, going from way cheap Epsons (Under 
100 bucks for an excellent B&W printer, no kidding) up to around one 
to two thousand or so for great 8x10

I, along with many others here, use the Epson c84 for a dedicated B&W 
8x10 printer,  50 to 80 bucks. 
(Rather amazing eh) and MIS archival inks with a  variety of papers, 
generally Epson Velvet Fine Art paper. There are many that are just 
as good and better actually.

Just read the many posts here about what printers do well and you can 
find something with little problem.

Great prints really don't have to cost an arm and a leg (just a 
finger or two).

Cheers

Jules
