Photographing for Inkjet Printing




I've been toying with the idea of buying an Epson 2200 with archival inks and large format (13" x 19" paper) so that I can produce my own copies on demand. I can get good photos of my work by shooting out of doors with Fuji Superia film, which I prefer to slides. However, then I have to scan the 4" x 6" photo into my computer and print from there, and I suspect the result will be grainy when enlarged to a decent copy size.

I'm wondering if I'm better off with a digital camera which would avoid the scanning step, or whether my Nikon system (I have N60 and 5005 bodies, plus wide angle and telephoto lenses) will do the trick somehow.
