Digital BW, The Print

A 60" printer will not cut it as a billboard printer. I was an architectural 
signage designer for 15 years, the last time I sold a large banner it was 
printed on a giant inkjet printer that could print 16' in one pass. I 
believe that printer cost over 300,000 USD and printed at 24 dpi.

Tyler, I guess you don't meet many portrait photographers then : ) ,  I have
had several request for canvas. It can emulate the old Extralure X surface
which had some popularity for portraiture.

As for billboards.... nope...
