It is not cumbersome, it is just a printer, except that it
will print om photographic paper. put another way it is just
a normal photo (a4 or letter format) no dithering or else 
involved. I do have a 2400 dpi color printer myself and it 
will produce photo-like pictures as long as you do not look 
at it from less the 50cm.
