Hello Everyone,

Is there a Dye Sub printer on the market which will print both 7x5 and 8x10 prints borderless? A chap that i met at an event the other day uses 2 rather expensive Mitsubishi's but he earns a living doing event photography and i just want one to produce my own prints with a bit more control than using highstreet labs.Any advice would be most helpfull. Thanks.

I'd like to hear the answer to this one also.

I came close to buying a Kodak Professional 1400 dye sub, but decided to go with a proof printer instead and sent my larger images to a pro lab to get printed. I'm pretty sure the Kodak doesn't print 8x10 borderless though. Even so, if I were to get a dye sub for printing up to 8x10's I tend to lean towards the Kodak.

Maybe someone else knows, but I'm not aware of another dye sub for under $1000 that will print 8x10's (I thought Olympus used to have one, but I can't find it listed anywhere).
