Printing Services

I would like to send my photo's out to have them printed. Does anyone have any recommendations for good printing services? I don't know where to start.

I use Kodak online as its easy to upload and share. But recently I have found a local guy who does a great job at a slightly higher price. But Kodak are fine for an online service.

We used White House Custom Color (http://www.whcc.com/) for some larger photos before we got our Epson 9800 printer. They did a very nice job on the photos - and quickly replaced one photo that was damaged in shipping.

Thanks Patty that is what I was looking for. I'm not ready to invest in a printer yet but I would like to have some prints.

I second WHCC. They are the best print lab that I have found, they have great prices, and are extremely helpful.

What are the sizes you are going for? Reason I ask is because it doesn't cost a whole lot if you intend to do a lot of printing to invest in a Canon PixmaPro9000 or 9500.... ink cartridges are small and each under $100 when the time comes for refills. The printer itself is around $900... we've bought one and love it. The quality is absolutely stunning and can print up to the 10 x 13. Check it out.

Hi KellyJo,

Thank you for the recommendation. I don't expect to do a lot of printing yet so I thought I would use a service for now.

I've been using Mpix.com for about 5 years. I used to let them do corrections, and they almost always did a great job. In the very few instances I complained they immediately reprinted the order to my specifications, and overnight shipped it to me on their dime. For the last few years I've been requesting no corrections, and my prints have always arrived looking like I expected them to (over 20,000 prints from them in 2008). I do calibrate my monitor every few weeks; if you don't calibrate your monitor I'd let them do standard corrections.

This seems like an old discussion that I just stumbled upon, but if you are just doing simple stuff, Shutterfly is also a good service. I have used them a few times.
