Technical note -  Screen Brightness
Please ensure that when preparing files, please send along prepared, flattened 8bit/16bit TIF files, converted to Adobe 1998. Additionally, please be aware the brightness of your computer screen. To ensure calibration is correct, we recommend editing with a screen brightness of 60%.

Bulk Printing

This service is for those artists who want to control their own printing - We recommend that before you print your images using our press-and-go service, you do a test. We do our test prints at 10-25% final size - this allows us to see any adjustments to the print that we may need to do before printing final size. If we are unsure if the file will go up in magnification, we will do a strip test at final size. Due to the nature of inkjet, and the printer we use, you can be confident in repeatability of prints due to the unity between program, printer and paper. For example - if you have a large body of work of images that you are planning to do a show with, we would recommend you do a batch of small test prints before going forward with your final prints. This helps you to see how your images work with, or against each other. This is going back to the day of contact printing off of roll film negatives that a photographer in the past would have to select and or sequence images.

For artists willing to take on the responsibility of preparing files for print without one of our printing professional's assistance, we are pleased to offer our "press and go" bulk service.

For direction on how to set up (in Photoshop) a file for bulk printing, please refer to our how-to video below.
We require files to be set up in  Adobe 1998 colour profile, and either as a 16bit or 8bit flattened TIF file. We do not accept any other file format. Please send us your files using our Hightail uploading system on our website.
For sanity's sake, we recommend a test on the paper we use. This will tell you how your work flow/monitor balance matches our printer profiles. Please ask us about how to obtain a test.

* Trimming of prints is available at an additional cost upon request

We welcome and support  image-based art thesis students from accredited Colleges or Universities, as well as members of various photo-based art groups. We happily offer them a 20% discount on this Press and GO service.
