Where is the best place to get prints of digital work?

[erinrew]

I have been invited to enter some of my work in an art show and I need some guidance.

I have never participated in a show before, nor have I ever had prints made of my digital work. What are the best places to get digital work printed? Also, What is the best format and paper for printing?

Any advice appreciated and thank you in advance.

@erinrew I get mine printed at a local photo centre. they do fine art prints on cotton and the prints are stunning. They aren’t cheap though, so Your profit margin wouldn’t be very large and it’s a large output without guarantee for sales. I’ve printed at print shops, but the quality was dramatically reduced and the Colors were nothing like what they should have been. Even in submitting the file in the color spectrum requested by the print shop, they never looked right. The photo center was however bang on. I would consider shopping around your local photo print centers and see what their options are for fine art prints and see if the prices are worth it for you.

@AngelinaKizz Thank you so much for this information. I will see what photo print centers are available in my area.

@erinrew there are also printers you can order from online. I've ordered samples from Giclee Today and they are stunning. Beautiful printing and lots of options. I'm going to get some prints made soon and will be ordering from them.
