Some locals have seen some of my prints and would like me to do some printing for them. I have Epson printers, a 2200 and a newer 3880. How much is a fair price for a 16X24 mounted on 22X30 foam core board ? I have always printed my own since 92 when I purchased an Epson 1200, never went the custom lab route, not familiar with pricing. Thanks

Check the prices at your local places that do this sort of thing and online sites. Then determine if you can price your product similiarly and still pay for your time and supplies. For what it is worth my online printer (whcc) would charge around $17 for an image the size you are talking about on 1/4" foam board.

I would not consider what they can get it for online. Find out what they can get it for locally and price it accordingly. They probably don't know about the internet services and they like your quality want you to print for them.
