John,

I think one of the best bargains out there right now for negatives up to
8.25" x 10.25" is the Epson C-80 — it only costs about $150 new and you might
even find it cheaper than that. It also is a 2880 dpi printer, so should
make some pretty fine negatives.

       Right now I am at a stand still because I found that my Laser printer

leaves small dark bands on transparencies that I think is inherent of a

laser printer...If I had joined the list sooner I would have saved myself

the $3000 I put into a large format HP 5000gn laser printer and would have

gotten a state of the art Epson...The Laser still has uses but I can not

progress without good digital negative capability due to a unique process

that I have been working on....... so instead of being there I will have to

wait another 6 months to save the money for a Epson.....

       Thanks for all the help....It is extremely important to me....
