Just curious. What is your LF work flow at present? It's set to multiple choice, but of course there is some combination I have left out, so feel free to elaborate.
I develop the film and make optical prints
I develop the film and make a scan that is lab printed
I develop the film and make a scan that I print.
I develop the film and make optical prints only for B&W.
Scanning back-lab print
Scanning back-self print
I use a lab for everything.
I have a lab process and scan but I do the printing.

Lab develops and I scan :-)
if today is any indication, I develop the negatives, then I spend half the day trying to find them in my office -- going through every negative I have, with no luck. They are around here somewhere! Nice ones too!

Maybe I just dreamed I developed them and the negs are still in the film holders...
For now, I'm primarily developing my own film, scanning on an Artixscan M1 and printing on an Epson 3800. I mostly exhibit and sell 16x20 prints--or something a bit larger. I also have a darkroom set up, but it still needs some work before I can start printing large (20x24) prints, contact printing 8x10's, and wet plate collodion.
There wasn't an option, so here's what I do.
I pick up my camera. Unfold it, set it up, play with it. Fold it back up and store it. Then I log onto LFPF.
My color workflow doesn't actually appear in your list:
Color: Lab develops, I scan, lab prints. This is most cost effective for me for C-41 4x5/8x10.
B&W: I develop, I scan, lab prints.

I develop all my own film, then print the B&W ones wet. The colour ones get scanned and printed - i have a nearby printer who does excellent work.
My work flow is similar to Ash's.
The same as Mick Noordewier (sounds Dutch), for both 4x5 and 8x10 inch.

I develop B&W and color and optically print B&W and Ilfochromes. I'm also beginning to scan and inkjet print color only.
