Thanks!
I generally do my own printing since I only print a few out of every batch that I take. I'll review all of my shots and if I want a 4"x6" print of something, I just print it myself, saves time and the waste of printing a whole batch when I will only want one or two. I usually frame B/W versions of any prints that I like so I'll take them to an office store that has large printers for whatever I want to frame. If you decide to buy an inkjet printer, I'd suggest that you look for the printer with the lowest cost ink, and not the lowest cost printer. The ink is what ends up costing you the most in the end.
