Rikarin Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 I have this good quality digital picture I want to have printed out large. Like, 15'x20' or like that, which usual printer doens't handle. Do anyone know CHEAP way to do this? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dfwmiket Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Honestly, somewhere professional is going to be your best bet. Kinkos isn't really "too" high priced. Any chance you work somewhere that there is a large plotter/printer? They'll do in a pinch, too. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.Hayden Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 lol - yes " = inches Most online places can do the smaller stuff, FedEx (Kinkos) www.kodak.com, even CostCo and WalMart. Sample for WalMart: Available sizes: 11 x 14 $6.84 16 x 20 $14.84 18 x 24 $17.82 20 x 30 $19.84 24 x 36 $23.96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik Habicht Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Looks like Printroom.com can do that for you --- for about $15.- Cheap enough? And yes 15" = 15 inches; 15' = 15 Feet. Why can't these silly people just use the metric system...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shred Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Several years ago somebody I know misread or mistyped ' instead of " when ordering prints. They wanted a poster they could hang in the window. What they got needed a 3 story building to hang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyM Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I vote for Costco, if you have one near you. My printer prints 13x19, but for the actual cost of ink and paper Costco is a better deal and ready in 1 hour if you're not getting the "Poster Size" of 16x20 or 20x30, those 2 need to be mailed to you. 11x14 and 12x18 are $2.99 each, very cheap. Remember though, depending on the camera's imaging ability (megapixels), your image may not look so good blown up. My old camera was only 6 Megapixels and at 13x19 it was really pushing the camera's resolution. This is an issue of perception though, at 4 feet away and farther it looked fine, but close up you could see the loss of details. Costco's site will warn you about going too big on a print after you upload a file, incase you don't know yourself. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzShooter Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I have to second the MPix.com site. I've used them for year for my poster size prints. They also have metalic which is a great print style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The opposite of the Spinal Tap "Stonehenge" problem. -Chet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
