Steve, that depends on how much time you want to spend learning to achieve excellent results with your own equipment. My experience trying to print from tiffs on my Epson 900 doesn't inspire confidence in home solutions to producing good copies. I'm still having enough trouble getting decent results in Photoshop and then having the image look equally good on the web. I have books and references on the process but I resent having to spend that much time on what should just be an ancillary process, not the main point of my days.
I'm probably going to try the local frame shop which just invested in giclee equipment and see how my copies turn out. A pastel artist I know managed to get wonderful results from a giclee outfit and his prints are so close to the originals that the difference is almost undetectable.
