I'm using an Epson 2000P (really should upgrade to the 2200 someday.) Epson makes several models - from the 1280, 2000p, 2200 - many more I'm sure - that can do 12 x 18 on a 13 x 19 Super B / Super A3 sheet of paper. Some models of HP's printers can handle the same size - don't know about

Cotty, I can bring a couple of prints of the largest size I can muster. Currently I have an A4, but there's always the labs. Mark, I have also noticed what you describe in some circumstances. Notably when the scene contains finer detail than the *istD can resolve, such as grassy fields, canopy,

I went out shooting today and a made a 12 x 18 print of a scene shot with the *ist D. I have mixed impressions, but must admit that I shot a scene that I knew would challenge the digital format. Here's a small image of the shot: If it looks familiar, that's because I shot the same location

The first one was shot on Royal Gold 400, so it's hard to say what the colors were exactly like. But the first shot (last year) was taken during a January thaw after a few inches of snow had melted, during a very dark and over cast day. This winter has seen no snow and it was in the 50's
