Third Party Printing

 

Printing your photographs at home can be very rewarding as you control the whole process from the capture of the photograph, right up to printing out your finished photograph.

But sometimes you have to consider other ways to get that finished print.

Often it is a case of cost, for example a good A3 printer can cost over £500.00, couple that to the cost of good quality A3 photographic paper (in different finishes and weights) and the cost of the ink can deter many people from printing photographs larger than A4.

There are a number of companies, for example DS Colour Labs, who can take your photograph and turn it into an A3 (or even larger) print for around £1.00 a print.

Although you will have to adjust the settings on your computer to match those of the companies printers to ensure that the finished print is correct, this works out far cheaper and opens up a wide range of possibilities !
