An Epson scanner can produce an excellent scan and so can the Nikon. You can easily make prints from digital files from those scanners that look as good or better than the drug store frontier prints. Keep in mind that RA-4 printing just like the frontier is an output option for any scan from home. You just need to work with a lab that prints on a Chromira, lightjet, etc...
So what does it take to get there? Time to learn how to master the process, get the most from the scanner software and photoshop. Fluid mount scanning on an Epson can give most of the same clarity that it offers on a IQ3, Cezanne or Aztek. It won't have the resolution of the drums or pro flatbeds, but it can produce a solid 16X20 on inkjet or RA-4.
