I believe that the difficulty may have to do with the contrast.  Printing from
slides always causes a problem because the contrast of the slide and what can
be captured on paper are so different.  EIR has especially high contrast, so I
would think that this would only make things more difficult.

I have not had any prints made from EIR slides, but have been quite happy with
the work done through The SlidePrinter in Denver, Colorado - (303) 698-2962.
