As Diavonex has said, it's less expensive to print at the shop but the satisifaction from your own print is pricelesss. It enhances the whole photography experience. If $$$ is no issue, DIY.
i used to think that printing at home is cheaper because shops need to make a profit so i thought it will be more expensive.
when I print on my own, other than the paper and ink costs, sometimes the first print doesnt come out well(paper jam,not aligned,ink smudge etc)
, then have to reprint on another paper... in the end spend more. There was a few times, i used 4piece of quality photo paper to get the perfect photo:sweat:
