I admit that I don't shoot much 120 but I checked with the local mini-labs and a couple of pro labs and nobody would do a 4x6 machine print from 120 6x9 cm image. They all said it was how their machines were set up. I couldn't believe it myself. I like that format but usually shoot it in black and white.
