Our Museum Shop wants to do a pilot project on Print on Demand for prints (not posters) of works in our collection. They would probably start with 30-50 images that they currently use on notecards that they sell. The thought is to start with a low cost pilot to test the market. The current thinking is to have a computer set up in the store on which a customer can select an image and print a order for a print. (The order only needs to include the name of the customer and the name of the print selected.) The customer would bring the order to the checkout point and pay for the print. The print would be produced at a later time on one of our high quality color printers and mailed to the customer. I would appreciate hearing from anyone with experience with this type of project, or anyone who knows of free or inexpensive software that could be used on the computer in the store to select an image and print the order.
