Hi Lore and helpful all,
I also would appreciate hearing more experienced artists, thoughts about
printers. If one has Windows 7 on a PC, and is adding a creative suite
(probably CS4) ... what good (but on the inexpensive side) printer would be
compatable? Not planning to make and sell prints, but for in-studio use
preparing art.
Lore, You are diplomatic about the tone of the curator's post. Like Britt
and Linda, I see no wrong in selling reproductions of popular images. I buy
beautifully illustrated books. But I do especially enjoy the originals
hanging on my walls.
Thanks, Annie

This post and discussion was very timely for me since I am about to replace
my old printer. I am trying to decide whether to buy an Epson R2880 to make
prints and cards, or whether to have a print shop print my work (and just
get a cheap printer for everyday needs). I am just at the beginning phases
of marketing my work.
Any thoughts on the trade-offs?
And although the author of the article was kind of a ... well, irritating
... i gotta agree that prints on canvas are cheesy!
