INKJET PRINTING SERVICES FROM FOUNTAIN STUDIO

Fountain Studio offers small format printing of photos and art work on a variety of archival or acid-free papers. Sheet sizes up to 17x22 inches, and landscape sheets up to 13 x 38 inches. Full bleed sheet printing is available in sizes from 4x6 inches to 16x20 inches. Prints are made on the Epson Stylus Pro 3800, using the UltraChrome K3 inkset. These inks have been tested by Wilhelm Imaging Research, Inc. in Iowa,  and depending on the paper used, prints displayed framed under glass or sheet acrylic have a life expectancy before noticeable fading or color changes occur of between 61 years and 166 years. Adding UV filtering glazing increases the longevity of the prints two-fold or longer. Generally, gloss or semi-gloss paper has a shorter life expectancy than matte paper. 

If you've heard or seen the term "giclée" and wondered what that is, it's just a fancy French-derived term for professionally printed high-quality inkjet prints. You can read more about giclées and the process here.

If you are an artist and need high-quality archival reproductions of your watercolors, drawings or other works on paper, please contact me. I can also print your images on card stock if you sell note cards. And of course, I can also print photos, old or new, on good quality archival paper that will last much longer than common photographic papers. See the Pricing & FAQS page for photo prices.

Giclée / Inkjet Printing Prices

There is no file setup fee or charge for photographing/scanning your art work. Those costs are included in the first print prices below. Additional prints of the same image are priced at a substantial discount. Cost is figured on a price per square inch, and is determined by the image size, not the paper size, of your print. Prints include a minimum one-half inch white border unless you have requested no border.
