In a situation where you already have positive prints, it may be even
cheaper to scan these to disk with a conventional flatbed scanner,
ideally with an Adobe Photoshop plugin, compose and label the images on
your computer with a program like MacDraw or Aldus Freehand, and print
them out on a dye sublimation printer or even a 600 dpi laserprinter.
This approach is ten times faster and five times cheaper than others,
if you have access to the required hardware. A friend of mine processed
thirty five autoradiograms (Northerns, RPAs) in a week this way for her
thesis.
