Image quality article June 2011 issue

On page 64 i read the following....."When you have an image opened in PS, you have two choices of color depth....8 bits or 16. The larger your color depth the better the quality of your image.
If you shoot RAW [i do ], you'll keep the higher quality by editing images in 16 bits."

The above makes obvious sense however i once did it in 16 bit and the printers [high and low streets ] could not print them full stop. All of the places i tried could only print in 8 bit....which seems to defeat the purpose....or am i missing something??


Any tips welcome :}
