As to the hand printed v. machine printed question, this seems sort
of self evident to me.  It is "machine made" if the process of
producing the print was via some kind of machinery AND there was
no human creative intervention in that process.  An ink jet print
is no more machine made than a print made under an enlarger.
Both of them are machines, both require human artistic intervention
in the mechanical process.  So, one could - after lots of edits,
corrections, etc. - even consider a digi-image sent to the local
drugstore for printing, "hand made" in some sense.  OTOH, blindly
shooting 25 fps on the latest DSLR and shoving the resulting
unmodified files to that aforementioned drug store for printing
would constitute a "machine made" result.

/me nods in agreement.
