We have several WG here a few miles apart, and they have Epson 7890 24" 
printers!  They will do a 20x30" print on what appears to be Epson 
semi-gloss (no one knew so I guessed and used that paper profile) for 
about $20.  Before I got my 17" Epson 3880 printer, I tried one, a 
16x20.  It was crappy, but I went back and talked with the photo clerk 
who knew a lot more than he let on.  After a head cleaning and setting 
to 1440 dpi for the right paper, it was a very good print.  The next 
step would be teaching how to use ABW for b&w.
