Re: laser printer for diginegs



Thanks Jim, for that. I think I can lay my hands on Dell in the UK. Any idea what the resolution is. Nice work by the way,

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/
