I do print my artwork, both photos and digital paintings, as illustrated in these photos taken at my exhibit at the Anchor House of Artists in Northampton, Ma.  I use professional printing labs for both.
For my photos I use HD dye sublimation on recycled aluminum. In this process, a mirror photo is printed on paper with an inkjet printer loaded with special dye. Then, under high heat, the dye is fused with a special coating previously applied to the aluminum sheet. This results in a highly durable photograph with vibrant colors, that resists scratching and UV light.
