Hi Jim,
Print size has only been to 11X14 and I don't have any grain problem with it
all. But then most of my work is real life moments as a photojournalist, so
I tend to accept grain a bit more than some other folks. ;-) that doesn't
mean I don't try to keep grain to a minimum any time.

But I'd say there isn't any to bother me at all. Tri-x and XTOL.
