(Apologies if this is in the wrong section)
I just landed a gallery project that requires me to print 40" x 60". Just beyond the current reach of my at home injet printers. So I find myself talking to commercial printers for the first time in 11 years. After years of darkroom and now injet I'm having a hard time communicating with them.
I'm in Dallas but what is your favorite lab for making color C-prints or Inkjet prints?
I would like to find a lab that uses Epson's latest injet printers OR a lab that would be willing to set up color management between me and the printer and produce C-Prints.
This entry is as a result of dealing with BWC in Dallas. They were unwilling to provide me an icc profile so I could soft-proof on my monitor with their printer. It took an hour conversation to realize a particular difficulty was that they could not make custom paper sizes and finally they couldn't even answer questions regarding output resolution. Their final suggestion was that I should calibrate my monitor based on the test photo that they made for me. I could be wrong but I just don't see it yet..
