Just wondering where everyone gets prints made. I'd like to get Fuji lightjet prints made from scans made on a Nikon Coolscan V.

My local Fuji minilab is 100% digital after film dev.

Here are the ones I have used, after scanning and burning to CD, together with today's prices for 4 X 6 prints:
Adorama.com (Kodak paper, matte or gloss) $.19 each plus a flat $ 4.95 shipping.
York Photo Labs (Kodak paper, matte or gloss) $.15 each plus shipping based on quantity.
Sam's Club (Fuji paper, matte or gloss) $.13 each plus tax.
All of these do a quite decent job, imo. If you are ordering larger sizes up to 11 X 14 on up, Adorama is my choice and highly recommended.

I tend to go for just dev and CD these days, no prints.
The CD has got 'LORES' (about 600 pixels side to side) and 'HIRES' (1800 odd pixel side to side) files and is fine for screen and for proofing at home.
Then back to the digital minilab now and then for prints larger than proof size.
* side to side means 36mm standard frame width.

Local Boots the Chemist minilab is surprisingly good.
Or Peak Imaging.
Or I keep meaning to try Loxley in Glasgow.
Also, there's a camera shop in town that sucks in every way, except they have a reasonably well set up Frontier that they charge a sensible amount for while-you-wait 10x8s from. 'Lustre' only, though.

I stopped using Adorama because of inconsistency. It's my habit to test this by sending the same file twice, a week apart. The tonal difference between the output was quite an eye opener.
Having all your copies printed during a single order would probably not be an issue.
