Giclee Printing
fine art giclée prints
Tech Specs   Media   Pricing

Our Giclée Fine Art Prints are in class of their own when customers desire a different look to their images by printing on watercolour or other specialty stocks. We have available a select few Hahnemühle and Harman papers, which have been thoroughly tested and chosen to offer the best reproduction quality via our profiled and managed workflow. This is an impressive way to combine the precision of digital print media with the wonderful grace of genuine artist papers made in a traditional way.

Founded in 1584, Hahnemühle is the oldest German paper mill still producing papers for traditional and digital art as well as industrial purposes.

Colourgenics uses an Epson's line of large format printers that is well known to artists. We believe that our flagship Epson 11880 and Hahnemühle papers offer the best quality output from all the platforms we have tested so far.
Our ultra-high resolution prints on paper have consistently wowed our clients with an amazing sharpness, clarity and colour fidelity. Giclée technology is particularily well suited for light, airy, colourful images, as well as images with wide tonal range.

LightJet 430
fine art photo prints
Tech Specs     Pricing

These are true photographic prints imaged on a photographic paper. Lightjet is rightfully considered a Rolls-Royce of large format photographic imagers - while 1st generation of photo-printers (Lambdas) focused on production volume, and the latest Chromira machines are all about cutting costs - LightJets were built for ultimate quality.
Our machine runs the best photographic paper currently available on the market - Fuji Crystal Archive series, including Super "C" semi-matte and glossy, Super "C" FujiFlex and - for backlit applications - FujiTrans film. To round up the package we also offer Kodak Metallic paper, with its unique look and high-gloss finish.

LightJet offers an excellent colour reproduction, sharpness corner to corner, smooth colour transitions and excellent gray balance.

Fujicolor Crystal Archive Super Type C Paper provides exceptional performance from large format digital systems. Print output results in vivid color reproduction, brilliant whites, plus distinct highlight detail. The result is a sharp and crisp appearance for fine art and exhibition purpouses.

The LightJet's consistency and repeatability means that work can be reprinted a year later and it will look exactly as it did when it was initially printed, which makes it ideal for artists producing editions of their work. And thanks to its precise reproduction capabilities the LightJet is also perfect for multi-panel displays where there are a number of pieces that need to be matched exactly.
