I don't print to sell, just for my own enjoyment. I think that what you have not mentioned yet is how much more expensive can be to display paper prints, a canvas print can be stretched, on very inexpensive wood bars, and is ready to hit the wall and be on display. In your own wall or someone that buys your art.
A paper print needs to be matted, framed, glassed. That was my reason to get a 44

I prefer the look of an elegant well framed and matted print on great paper, but the expense can be a killer

I find it costs me more to mount a canvas as I farm it out to a framer. I frame my own traditional prints without glass and the cost comes out less than having my canvas prints stretched onto stretcher bars.
