Digital BW, The Print

Personally I've always used profilecity dot com. There are plenty of
others from what I've heard on these lists. I've always had perfect
results with Profile Cith, but they are about a $100.00 each. If I
were you I would ask this question on the yahoo epson large format
list and also search those archives. Some people have them done for
half that and are happy. I'd check into that. There are more color
specialists around over there I imagine.
