I wonder if anyone has a recommendation for a printer ? I use Loxley for my 'proper' individual prints but I'm looking for somewhere

that can print acceptable quality prints of 6"x9" / A4 at a good price in quantities of eg 50 or 100 per image.

I currently sell greetings cards through various local outlets and am wanting to produce an affordable mounted but un-framed print for re-sale. 

 

Ta very much

Had good results with Photobox, only used them twice as I had my own printer, but once for a colour profiled canvas print (incidentally the nasturtium in the "orange" thread) and recently for some mobile phone photo prints.

Cheers, Keith

Thanks Keith, I see they offer bulk discounts. I've asked for prices

For really top quality Lab' prints that are professionally produced as opposed to mass processed I use Peak Images  https://www.peak-imaging.com/
I find them excellent and generally very competitive. (no association)

Cheers Richard, I've emailed them with a couple of questions

(Photobox, as mentioned above, don't do bulk discounts on prints - despite offering it on the website)

I've always been happy with the results produced by Digilab   Prices vary according to quantity. e.g. 9x6 in 87p each 1-5 but 38p each for 51 plus.

Thanks Bryan. 

I'm finding that the actual print can be quite cheap but that mounting it on to eg a thin card is the pricey bit - eg nearly £4 per 6x9 at Peak Imaging.

It would make the finishing and presentation much easier if the prints were either mounted or printed directly onto a thicker medium as it's 

a messy, fiddly process mounting piles of prints at home.
