there are a couple of labs doing this on the Durst Lambda - one in Toronto -
I tried a test print on this as well. Nice tonal range, but it just wasn't
that sharp - which is a known problem with the Lambda - something to do with
its light source + the fibre paper. It was definitely noticeable.

It was softer/not as sharp as either a standard darkroom enlargement or an
inkjet print of the same size from the same scan
