I am not entirely sure, I haven't been printing very much .... but I would not be afraid to try 16 X 20 .... If you are truly interested in big prints and you have not read about or seen Genuine Fractals ( I think they changed the name of it now) I would highly recommend you look at it .....it does impressive enlargements without IQ loss.


I have 9 16 X 20 prints in my office that I ordered from mpix.com but I used Genuine Fractals on the image files and saved them as an 8 bit TIFF prior to having them printed and they printed fantastically (IMHO)
