Re: laser printer for diginegs

Hi, David....As Dan mentioned earlier, I print all of my negative using a laser printer. I have a very inexpensive Dell P1500 b/w printer. I do very little to the image before printing. For tri-color I usually boost the saturation a bit and for b/w images I play a bit with levels. Every image gets treated a bit differently, so I do not have a curve that I automatically load. My ink cost is negligible and my cost for each transparency is 36 cents.

If you look at my wed site you see the the results that I get:  http://larimerphoto.blogspot.com/

Hi David,

I haven't had the printer quite that long. The cleaning process did something to the heads so they just pour ink out. Like they've blown a seal or something!
