Phil, there is this nebulous memory wending its way through my synapses... Didn't you start a thread aeons ago, asking PRECISELY this question? Or was it "Should I use the services of a photographer or print my own photos"?

Q, it has taken me a long time to get some paper and try doing some properly and I am deeply disappointed.

Or buy a better printer. Dot matrix photos tend to look !!!!!!

Think its from 6p a photo. You can choose any size and how many prints you want of each. Easy peasy.

10p prints and first 20 free here.

Don't put up with disappointment Phil....It turns people into miserable, inward looking wierdos.

My printer is a HP ink jet, so is that still a dot matrix one?

I know I am a twit for buying HP rather than ESpon as Espon printers are far cheaper to buy new ink for.

Yes. Go into PC world and ask them if they have a laser inkjet. You'll have to pay a bit more but the results are better. Especially if you get the printer which uses white ink as well
