Digital image to archival print

[Una Smith]

The question is how to produce archival *prints* from digital source.
I presume the prints are to be attached to herbarium sheets.

Bob Morris is right that color mapping between image files and output
devices (including monitors!) is non-trivial.  There are books about
color management.  But perhaps color isn't necessary?

My preference would be laser or ink-jet printing (using archival ink
or ink equivalent) of simulated half-tones on archival quality paper,
if possible printing directly onto the herbarium sheet.

One place to lurk for the latest tricks would be rec.photo.digital.
