Now many labs if you tell them up front what you are doing for an order that size would stay late for the business. A runner to some place close by makes a whole lot more sense than trying an inkjet. If you must use an ink jet, you are likely going to need more than one and the people to keep them busy or deliver the prints later.

Unfortunately, the event will be starting at 8pm so the idea of getting

have the camera, lights and computer so I just need some advice on

what kind I need. Thanks for all the input. Please keep it coming!
