Digital BW, The Print

I have to use my papers in their RAW form, they don't print as well 
when I jpeg compress them for storage, and then try to iron them out 
to make a print. No matter how hard I try, there are always a few 
wrinkles that catch the printhead leaving an ugly black-ish smear. 
I've tried hot irons, cold irons, wet process, steam pressing, just 
about everything. Nothing seems to work.

Can someone help me find a way to store those pesky papers in a 
smaller size, and them reconstitute them for printing and display?

I am having very good luck with PNG compressed inks though. They are 
much smaller than the standard inks, so you get a lot more per 
bottle. And you don't need to uncompress them to print, so you get to 
put down less ink which saves money too. You do need special PNG 
compatible profiles, but that isn't much of a problem anymore since 
that's what most places are making.

There now we are back within the forum guidelines talking about 
printing :D
