Where to print photos
-
I've been into photography for a few years now but the truth is that I've never printed any photos. My printer isn't great so I want to make a photo developing site. On Google, there are many sites that do this but in this type of thing, there are surely better places than others.
Where do you recommend I do it? I don't mind paying a little more if the result is worth it.
Thanks.

I know there's a place in Madrid where guys stick photos, but I don't know what it's called, but prepare your wallet.
Whether it's large format or small, right now I recommend you look for Epson. They have a large format one with 12 inks that exceeds sRGB, just like the small one where if the paper is from Epson I've done the test of wetting them without the ink disappearing. It's not an advertorial, it's what I saw at the presentation of the new models in April. I got the one with eco-solvent inks, and with 4 inks it's amazing. Photographers come to print and they don't believe it.
The others that are also giving a lot of quality are the latex that HP is handling, but from what I was told it usually loses pigments before Epson's, but the quality is also impressive and they're talking about losses by putting them in the sun. But these are large format.That is, if the machine is not well calibrated forget it. There, no matter how good it is, you have nothing to do.

What Garfield says to you is only worth it if you are going to print a lot of photos.
If you want to print large photos, go to a photographer and ask about prices. They take the images to a lab. The last one I printed was 40*60 and it cost me 20 or 25€, if I'm not mistaken, and I forget about printers and inks.
Someday I will dare to print a photo on canvas. They are more expensive, but I really like the finish they have.

Finally I went to a local developing shop. The print was chemical on glossy paper and I am really happy with the result. Each photo cost me €2.50 in 20x30cm.
