Hi Mark.
Either in addition to, or instead of, in-house printing, one might consider
a corporate partnership with a local professional photo store that has
digital printing capabilities (e.g. the Kodak kiosk).
Museum staff could negotiate a discounted price from the store, thus making
a small profit when selling to museum clients (this does not address the "on
demand" part of your question).
One could use this, or other negotiations, to build a relationship with the
store, which could lead to support for exhibit photographic materials, or
other support.
