Quality of Costco prints? ICC profiles?
continued from other conversations...
As I often warn people, printing from the local mega-store mini-lab results in lower quality prints. Few of these budget establishments monitor their equipment, calibrate it for accurate color, and change the chemicals/supplies during the manufacturer-suggested life cycle. You're usually better off outsourcing to a real photo lab, whether it's a budget service -- like Shutterfly, Snapfish or SmugMug -- or an actual professional lab in your area (for example, Dallas has several great labs). Of course, sometimes you don't need top-end quality for 4x6's that are put in a scrapbook or given away to friends/family for free. At that point, you need to just minimize the damages. While I still suggest the online options, sometimes the locals can work with you. For example.... Quote:
