Introduction

As Ansel Adams said "The negative is the score, the print is the performance." This is just as true in today's digital world as it was in Ansel's silver-based one. If you haven't seen photographs printed on color printers, you are in for a big surprise. The output you can get from printers costing a few hundred dollars will shock you. The results may not be the same as prints made with traditional photography, but in many ways they have a look and feel all their own. Because of the wide choice of papers, inks, and technologies available, printed images vary a lot. This doesn't mean they have poor quality, it just means they are different. At the moment, two types of printers stand out, ink-jets for low cost and dye subs for high quality. Before looking at them in more detail, let's look at how printers work.
