That is the BIGGEST drawback to doing your own prints. Getting good prints is not something that can be rushed. The fingerprinter half of the Crossfire team never gets a break. One teaches while the other prints.

We have determined that our class size limit is about 25, because that is how many we can comfortably print during a 10 hour class.
