okay here's the deal.....
I do not have a printer of any kind. I know, I'm the last person on earth without one.
Here is what I need. I will be printing an image from a 3x4 black and white negative, which I will digitalize on a flatbed scanner. (I know but hear me out) I want to make a print about 4x6 on plain cardstock in black ink only. The ink coverage will be pretty heavy I imagine.
I need a printer capable of reasonable quality, and a low per print price. Ie ink or cartridge cost to be low. Initial cost is less important than the per print cost.
Im sure someone can help me at least with the dpi numbers if not the make and model of a printer. I have no preconceptions at all so feel free to recommend anything.
