I am thinking of starting to sell prints of some of my images, like Doug 
does, and so decided to test my pro lab's Lambda print service. I took a 
CD with these two images to the lab (s-Color in Amsterdam):

and asked them print them 30x40cm, or 12x16 in. The result is beautiful! 
As far as I understand the process, the digital file is written onto 
normal photographic paper using a laser or something like that. I am 
having these two framed, the Seville image for my house, the bridge 
sunset as a holiday present for my sister.

What is particularly impressive is that the images are scans from what 
today is considered an ancient scanner, the Nikon LS-2000.

I have just bought the Epson R800 for my own color work. It can print 
only up to A4, but I do not need bigger prints that often, and when I 
do, using this service will be just the ticket.
