https://petapixel.com/2023/01/10/costco-shuts-down-online-photo-center-directs-customers-to-shutterfly/ man fuck this I just wanted to make some quality prints. Is photography over? I just wanted to make some decent Christmas pics and I can't even print shit. What do you do to print? Any CISS that's good for home use? What do you do for printing

The prints are like 20x more expensive and they're worst. They made me fill it all out to just pounce a shitty price on me.

Oh forgive me I'm retarded, I though you specifically want to develop film. If it's just printing things should be easier but you will most likely need to find a place that is local to you and specializes in printing photo, so I can't help anyway.

IQ is great, but it only does up to A4 and does not replace a general purpose printer (it's too slow for printing multi-page text documents).
Running cost with PP-201 4x6" is ~0.16€ and strongly depends on how cheap you can find the paper, the ink alone is like 0.03€ per print.
Also you need to print some photos every other week to prevent the print head from drying.

I make 4"x6" prints at CVS. They have a Kodak kiosk. I would say make a test print just to see how their printer is kept up, sometimes I've gotten poor results, other times it's been okay.

CVS literally the worse digital print results of my life. Distorted resizing of a perfectly sized edit, and brightness increases across the board so that my detailed shots all blow out.

And staff are incompetent morons.
0/10. Anywhere else. I’m serious

Perhaps you’re right. But that doesn’t mean I want to gamble on that chance

I'm sorry you can't afford a few cents. I'm sure you can sell your cameras for that much.

I am very blessed in my city to have a print shop that does amazing work - look up independent printing places near you - you'd be surprised. I'm sure if you went in person and asked to see some samples they would obliged.

I'm sorry you can't afford a few cents or have an IQ as big as the number 50.

He said try ANOTHER CVS though. Doing the same would be to keep using the one you already tried.

wow I just checked the google maps and there's a print shop like 10 minutes from my house and they even do metal prints. Not 1:3 metal prints so I guess I'll have to stick with the new york jews for panos but for normal aspect I'll have to try them and see if it's as good.
