The art of fine art printing has become even more precise with the revolutionary Giclée (zhee-clay) printing process. In the Giclée process, a fine stream of ink (more than 4 million droplets per second) is sprayed onto archival art media or canvas. Each calculation of hue value and density directs the ink from 4 to 8 nozzles.

This produces a combination of 512 chromatic changes, with over 3 million colors possible of highly saturated, non-toxic ink. Since no screens are used in Giclée printing, the prints have a higher resolution than lithographs and the dynamic range is greater than serigraphy. The apparent resolution of the digital print is 1800 dots per square inch, which is higher than a traditional lithographic print and has a wider color gamut than serigraphy.

Giclée prints render deep, saturated colors and have a beautiful painterly quality that retains minute detail, subtle tints and blends. It is cost effective. The highest quality printing is made affordable because the edition can be printed on an `as needed' basis, eliminating a substantial up-front investment. Publishers can control inventory by printing only what is needed. Giclée prints have an impressive exhibition record. They have been shown in museums and galleries throughout the world.
