Do you want the cheapest way to do it or the highest quality, or something in between?
If you have an image that fits in less than 20x30", CostCo or another mass printing service can do it for $10. They won't do any adjustment, so the colors may be off a little.
They'll print on canvas to 30x40" for $120. That's only 150dpi; it doesn't look great up close, but is pretty good from 3+ feet away. Again, colors are what they are.
High quality printing is a thing that you talk about with a professional printer (the person, not the machine) for each job. Prices generally start at $100 or so for smallish prints, and can go up to $1500 or more for large, permanent-art quality work.
- pjmorris 6y agoMore like the highest quality, but probably price sensitive which means 'somewhere in between.' I've thought about taking a test image to Costco to see how it comes out on metal, but figured that there might be higher quality options. Thanks for your examples, looking to see what others post.
- dsr_ 6y agoRemember that when you work with a good image printer, you're paying for their expertise and time -- and you won't have to re-print failures, because they'll consult with you to get it right. One friend of mine spent several hundred dollars at an online printer in $40 increments trying to get it right.
