    Hi Guys, any pointers on where to get digital black and white prints done?
    Usual digital colour processing give photos a sepia or green hue. I am looking for crisp black and white.
    Is there anywhere online that does it?

    i can print them

    i print loads of B&W for clients

    the trick is the right kind of paper and ink combination

    most mini lab type prints will come out green or purple like you say because they are printing using colour papers and colour chemistries

    Just an idea, but did you send the images as RGB files that were desaturated? By desaturating in Photoshop, it removes any colour and presents it as a proper B&W photo. If you used the colour correction sliders to get what appears to be a B&W picture then any colour profile problems and mismatches would appear in the final print.
    Having said that, stcstc is your man, guaranteed you won't be disappointed.
