Many photographers feel the photographic image is not finished until printed. Of course there is a cost to printing and what do you do with all your printed images. One suggestions, print the images you want to give as a gift.
You can pick up a less expensive printer which can double as your every day printer. To read the latest printer article from PetaPixel click HERE.
An interesting option to printing at a reasonable cost is libraries will print for you. Some will let you use your own photo paper and some will not. The Palos Park library will let you print with your own photo paper…the cost? 25 Cents! Try and beat that cost. Check out your local library for this service.
