Quality Printing
Pilot proofs
Global (overall) color & density adjustments are made to files we scan through a semi-automated process. No edits are made to customer-supplied files prior to proofing. Pilot proofs are normally ready for pickup within 24 hours.
Production prints
Image files are reviewed individually by our technicians. They are carefully dust-busted and adjusted for optimal "pleasing" color and tonal-range reproduction. If color reproduction is critical or image manipulation (retouching) is necessary, additional service charges are applied. Please provide color swatches or samples so we can attempt an accurate match. Production prints are normally imaged and ready for pickup within 48 hours. Allow additional time for retouching.
Scan & Proof packages
Price includes a high-quality scan (DCI in-house use only) imaged on digital photo paper or other media. Packages are normally scanned and imaged within 48-hours. Scans written to CDs are also available.

Our LightJet 5000 prints photographs as large as 48x96" directly from an RGB digital file onto reflective or backlit display materials. A continuous-tone system, the LightJet prints at 305 ppi (120 pixels per cm) in 12-bit color.
