I currently offer in-house prints made to "archival" standards (not interested in debates over what that means, hence the quotes) up to 16x20.

I'd like to offer larger sizes, but those would have to be made by a commercial print service. My requirements are pigment printing on semi-gloss 100% rag paper with no optical brighteners.

Is anyone using such a service and happy with it?

I used a couple of places that were great... but they are in Hong Kong. Small printers, great quality, do work for local Galleries (one does the prints for the Gallery that reps Ho Fan). Probably not what you want though.

If you haven't found a good local art printer I assume you are looking for a bigger/online lab that does archival quality? I have never used them but Whitewall seems to get a lot of positive reviews https://www.whitewall.​com …ne-art-prints/hahnemuehle (external link)
