Hi Gang.............. Very often I use the Mini Lab at Sam's Club to make prints from my digital files. I have done all the color correction (or convert to gray scale) and image sizing in PS 7 so all they have to do is print the files. The price is right and they usually do a good job. However........ When I bring them a B&W (gray scale) file sometimes they get it right and sometimes is comes our blue/purple. By the way, I always burn my Color and B&W onto separate CD's to make things less confusing. I have mentioned to them that these are B&W files and to make sure to set their printer for B&W. They do seem to be aware that they have to set the printer different for B&W. The Manger. of the Dept. seems to have good luck in reprinting them and getting them to come out correctly. Does anybody here know what I can tell the folks behind the counter to do when the occasional prints comes out blue/purple. The last set of files I took to them were horrible and the Manger. wasn't going to be back for a few days so I ended up at the custom lab paying three times as much! Lets not let this get into a debate about Mini Labs vs. Custom Labs. I know that the Mini Lab can do the job when it is set properly! Thanks...... Russ R.E.
