All depends on the purpose... Techwriting 101.

For instance:  Multiple copies or a roll of film... ink is cheaper by

A picture remains a picture in ANY case.  I got "Photo quality" off a
single print.  As yet, I'm unimpressed with the difference  between
digital and standard TV, aside from the variety of delivery.

The difference is NOT black and white -That I've seen.
