GICLÉE ART PRINTING

With an ever increasing range of papers, Giclée printing has become more popular than ever. Using an Epson Stylus Pro 9800 with its 8 colour UltraChrome™ ink system, we are able to create prints up to 44” wide with stunning vibrancy and a wide colour gamut.

We print up to 1440dpi to ensure the smoothest results on to a wide range of papers such as such as Hahnemuhle German Etching 310 gsm, Photo Rag 308 gsm and Photo Rag Ultra Smooth.We also print onto new “Baryte” Fibre Based Papers - a digital solution to the traditional Fibre based papers used in the conventional darkroom. These heavy weight papers create stunning prints with deep rich colours or stunning black and whites.

Should you need your artwork digitally replicated you can choose from either a flatbed scan up to A3 size, or our ‘Digital Capture’ service up to A1. Both of which include matching the file to the original and proof print.

Standard Studio Giclée Prints

If you would like us to resize, adjust overall colour or simply want the reassurance that someone has checked your files, our Standard Studio Service could be for you. We can also match your file to print you have previously had made, or print all your files so that they work well together as a series for exhibition.

Master Giclée Prints

When precise control over your image is required before printing, Master printing offers a one-to-one service with one of our highly experienced studio team who will work closely with you to achieve your desired result.

First we will proof and adjust your images on screen, applying overall colour corrections when required. Next we produce test prints for your approval before processing the final print.

As well as being able to visit the lab to work alongside the printers we are able to offer this service remotely by posting test prints and taking telephone or email instruction. Additional test prints are available, if required. Once the final test has been approved and the print produced the Mastered file is written to disk for your records and is then saved to the Spectrum archive along with a match print for reference. You can then order Edition prints as and when they are required.

The Master Service includes:

  Consultation with our Master printers who will then allocate up to 15 minutes per image for adjustments
  Up to 2 Test prints
  Free archiving on the secure Spectrum archive
  Archiving of proof print for reference
  Edition CD including corrections and profiles
