Do you print? If you do, what size? And do you print them yourself?

I will do my own printing. I have a large format Epson printer and I will print a variety of sizes.

I print two ways;

1.) keepsakes 4x6 just like when i was a kid. I print these myself on a Canon Selphy 910.

2.) Larger framable prints I send to AdoramaPix.


I'm also seriously considering a Fuji Instax portable printer for small business card prints. The printer is so small you can keep it in your camera bag.

I print up to 13x19. If I need very small (4x6) or very large (20x30) I let someone else do it.

Yes I print occasionally, and do it myself.

Mostly 4x6 to distribute once in a while 8.5x11.

I'm a Nikon user but print with Canon.

5 X 7 and 8 1/2 X 11 and I print myself with an Epson Artisan 837 with a back-up Epson Expression 800 which I got on a special sale for $40.00 and couldn't pass it up. It also included the ink. I haven't used it yet but for that price I figured how wrong could I be....Rich

When I print, it's mostly 8.5 X 11 on my old standby Deskjet 6122. Thinking about upgrading to something that will do 13 X 19.

Self print up to 13 X 19 and I also cut my own mats.
Anything larger goes to Costco. If you don't like the print they will redo it or not charge and destroy the print that you don't like.

For $.13 for a 4x6, $1.49 for an 8x10 and $8.99 for a 20x30 ...., Costco does it all for me.

Epson 1400, up to 13x19, send out any canvas or super large work.

Yes, I print. Photography without printing, and hanging/displaying, is like gardening without harvesting, and cooking/dinner parties.

Printing produces an almost endless supply of questions/decisions. Final color set, size, dimensions, mounting, matting, framing, canvas, gloss, and the ultimate, where will the wife allow me to hang it.

Each of my images determines their own answers/requirements, except on location, that is the spouse's choice. I have a small hall dedicated to my postcard sized humorous little people photos. My Great Blue Huron, canvas, almost 6 foot tall, dominates the parlor mantel, and our stairs provide a home to selected work, mounted on foam core. And my masterpeice collection of windows, framed, matted, and displayed, all by me, is in the dinning room.

In my less than humble opinion, the photo isn't really done, until it has been enjoyed by friends, and my ego is massaged. We have begun to warn friends, not to overly praise any one peice, or they may either receive a copy, or just as likely, leave with it in hand.

Sorry for rhe poorly done attached photo, done using my tablet, but don't fell articulate enough to just us words.
