In my very limited experience, it does not matter much if the printer is
local.  The print needs to be packed and protected to get it to the framer,
etc. so other than shipping cost, locality is not so important.  Also, there
is not a large number or printers providing fine art BW services.

What do you call a reasonable price?  Is $20/sq-ft reasonable?  That is my
personal assessment for top-notch quadtone printing on photo rag.  Are you
are looking for a printer to develop a relationship with, or just to make a
print or two?

Best regards,
John Moody

Thanks for the info.

I will probably be looking to do prints up to 20x24" and larger... assuming
it is not
practical (with as quickly as printers get outdated) to purchase what would
likely be a large
format printer, is there anywhere locally that makes these types of prints
at reasonable
prices?

Thanks again,
~Joel
