In-house printing is taken care of via a Canon Pixma Pro 9000 printer. With 8 tanks to feed, it's definitely not the least expensive option out there, but matches well with what I see on my MacBookPro laptop screen, and with my Apple 24" Cinema Display when I plug the laptop into that for editing.
My favorite place for large-scale printing (above 13" x 19"), I use Blue Cube Imaging. I've sent the same B/W image out to BayPhoto, Nations Photo, Blue Cube, and a couple of other print houses who "specialize" in B/W images. Blue Cube best matches EXACTLY what I see on my screens. The customer service is great, and it's supporting a small business, which is also important to me. I print my art prints nearly exclusively on metallic paper, and with the comparisons done, I prefer their printing quality.

The beauty of reality is that we are masters of its creation.
