What is the difference between self-publishing and self-printing, and why are they viewed differently by publishers? I understand self-publishing is a negitive thing if you'd indeed like legit publishing firms to consider your works in the future.

I publish in lots of places I wouldn't necessarily tell editors about if they didn't ask when submitting manuscripts. I don't see why self-publishing would be different.
