I think you are right- an inkjet print isn't the same thing as a fine 
silver print. To me they are more like an incredibly excellent 
reproduction of a photograph-like the best photo gravure from the 
masters of the past.
As far as digital snaps go-files printed on a Noritsu type machine 
look more like photos than snaps printed on an epson.
Color definitely is better on a good ink printer better than any r 
print-c print- etc.
