All printing is done with a HP Designjet Z3100 Photo printer and HP Vivera inks. With these pigment inks, prints last longer and present a wider colour gamut compared with dye inks uses in most small inkjet printers. The print quality is significantly improved over that of popular photographic papers used by commercial developers. Gloss enhancer is used on all our satin and gloss prints, to eliminate gloss differential and seal the print further, making it waterproof. Our system is colour-profiled on a regular basis, and ICC profiles for our current print media are available below.
Custom media is available, please contact us to discuss alternatives.
Photo printing services are tailored to photographic images, or posters where a satin or gloss finish is desired. Our current paper for both satin and gloss finish is HP Everyday Pigment Photo, a 235 gsm paper that offers relatively wide gamut and excellent water-resistance, as well as low cost.
