Some prints may be rolled and sent in a tube, others will be shipped flat. Breakable items may need to be double boxed. The size, weight, and method of packaging determine how the artwork will be shipped. We mainly ship by UPS or truck freight, but will also ship by U.S. Mail, if required. All items will be insured for their full value. Once the shipping method and exact cost is known, we will send you a confirming order with this information by email or phone.

Our prints are made from the 24" Epson Stylus® Pro 7800 printer, a newly developed and improved model from its predecessor, the 7600. Based on the newest generation of pigment ink, the Epson UltraChrome K3™ incorporates eight new color pigments including three levels of black. This produces superior quality archival prints with color fidelity, scratch resistance, and color stability (when printed on Epson papers). For more information on inks, go to www.prographics.epson.com. We will make every effort to match the color of the digital file we receive from you, but it will not be exactly the same as the original. We can print up to a full 24" bleed printing at a resolution up to 1440 dpi. The paper is on rolls so the length is flexible. We stock Premium Photographic Luster paper for photographs and Somerset Velvet paper or canvas for art prints. Other papers are available. Prices do not include scanning. See scanning prices above for that service. We will provide interleaving sheets to protect the surface of the print. Digital file types we can accept are RGB or grayscale, TIFF, PSD, JPEG, or EPS at a resolution of at least 180 dpi. Please flatten any layers and delete any additional alpha channels before submitting. CMYK files should be converted to RGB. When you provide the digital files, we assume that they are clean, have the correct contrast and brightness, and have been color corrected to closely match the original to your satisfaction. If you would like us to do color correction, we can do that for an extra charge. We will need to see the original artwork for comparison. If you do not have a digital file of your image, you will need to have your film or artwork scanned. We provide scanning up to the sizes listed above. Digital art service prices are subject to change. To see and print a map of our location, click here. |
