a) my preference is usually the normal photo print (wet chemistry) once you've found a good printing service
b) the printer manufacturers live from their ink - that makes the prices - but usually the orginal ink is considered to be better (in various dimensions), as say many tests (btw Pelikan is a good substitute brand in Germany too...)
c) for the few ink jet prints I do (DIN A3 +) I use matte paper (Lumijet, Hahnemühle) and original Epson pigment ink (on the Photostyle R2400). If I already pay much money for the paper to save it for the ink seems not to be wise....
