Photo Kiosk

Having printed only black-and-white for the past 25 years, I was 
recemtly faced with an interesting challenge. I had taken a nice 
informal portait of my elderly mother with my new digital camera.When I 
came home I immediately converted the image to black-and-white, but her 
pale lined face and pastel sweater just didn't work in black-and white. 
I tried printing color on my 2400, but realized I had no idea how to do 
it.

So, I went to Wegman's, our local food market, and after about ten 
minutes on the photo machine had a beautiful color print. In fact, I 
made about 10 to send to the family. What great technology!

Anyone else face this situation, and do you use these machines? Any 
other solutions, other than reading all the chapters on color printing?
