Where to print photos online
I routinely end up having discussions with print places along the lines of "no - i did not want you to 'enhance' my colours"


I calibrate my screen (spyder 3) ... if anyone is thinking of getting a screen calibration tool - do!! Cant recommend it highly enough.
If im printing large i'll print a small proof first, and perhaps re-edit the calibration and try again.
The only advice i can offer is avoid jessops

I have had some great poster prints done at Tesco too which is farmed out to s third party...

Loxley or Costco
Loxley look really good, like the choice of papers! though was a bit odd to have to register to see the price list. Still, not as steep as I was expecting - 12x12 is £3.31

DS Colour Labs, cheap and good quality prints (on Fuji paper). The last batch I had printed at A3 cost me £1.09
At that price i think i'll run out of wall space

Peak Imaging for large prints although websites a bit "clunky"

I have found it is necessary to try a few and get a feel for the printed output in relation to your work as seen on the monitor. The main variations between these I have seen has been colour saturation (I have found prints from some services oversaturated) and a tendency for some prints to show a 'muddy' brown cast, and weak greens and blues. I was once told by a print machine operator in an old Konica shop (now a Jessops) that this was caused by lack of cleaning and not replenishing the toners.
I'll update when I get my first batch from foto.com - I'll be getting some 12" by 10"s as well as smaller sizes, including my first prints from my K7!

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

So where do you guys get stuff printed? Anyone use online print companies (upload via ftp or similar). Any nightmare companies to avoid, any gems?
I'm sure a thread must already exist on this, but i couldnt find one.
