for an 11x17 print, my starting price is $100. going cheap on ink is pointless when it contributes so little to my cost and yes, for that price, the print had better last a very long time. that's where the OEM ink vendors are unproven. paper, OTOH, really comes from only a few vendors and the brand names aren't so important.

If someone is selling a raw print for $30+, I think they should be using best quality paper & inks. The production cost for a 'mass produced' 11x17 is around $4. Ultimately, the cost of the ink pales in comparison to the cost of top flight paper(s) and I always ask the artists/printmakers what paper & inkset they use.
