just to interject: angel is right on many points, including the names of things in graphics software might be the same as the names of things in the analog world, but they function, operate, and output differently than the "model"; Kai's power tools are of course famous, but you can see from the wiki quote, ui is about ease of use for the most people even the use of workflow seems to be different! but drum scan... yeah... don't wait for the flat beds... also, I do not know of many pod printers that can handle printing high resolution, or offer a variety of appropriate paper; in other words, if the process of digitizing and photoshopping is degrading your images, compared with not, the process of digital printing is going to be more disappointing yet -- All best, Catherine Daly [log in to unmask]
