I&#39;m not interested in badmouthing companies that fill an important niche in the market. After all, it&#39;s ultimately the publisher&#39;s responsibility to choose the right level of quality at the right price.<br /><br />And at the top end, I don&#39;t want to endorse a handful of printers, either. There are others who are just as good. And with my luck the first person who goes to one of my favorites will either be the hard luck customer who gets a lousy job or else be such a royal pain that the printer is upset with me for recommending them. Safer to keep the focus where it is. ;-)Dick Margulishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10169512038331158003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27606211.post-21250130758116037842009-12-17T16:02:22.792-05:002009-12-17T16:02:22.792-05:00Dick, thanks for an excellent and useful article. It&#39;s obvious that you look at the products of these printers with an experienced eye. What would be even more fascinating if you care to add it at some time would be to name actual companies as examples of each category.JFBookmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11233715897322560514noreply@blogger.com
