In truth, I made quite a few 16 x 20 prints with BW film, because my darkroom is set up for that. With digital I can only print up to 13 x 19. MF 16 x 20s are nice, but with digital 13 x 19x are much easier and much less expensive. I need Bill's big paper printer. Paul On Jan 25, 2008, at 6:52 PM, William Robb wrote:
