Giclée Printing:
Giclée (pronounced ghee-clay) is a french term meaning "to spray forcefully". Developed in the early 1990's by Nash Editions, the term is still controversial. A Giclée print is much more than a reproduction of art sprayed with ink, however. In fact, if this were true, a "Giclée Print" could be produced by any desktop printer. What makes a Giclée print unique, is that it is printed on archival paper and uses archival inks. A system of color management throughout the process is implemented to achieve the closest reproduction possible. Giclée prints have a high resolution and are printed at a very fine dot per inch, which makes the clarity and precision of the print nearly like the original. Giclée prints also use more ink colors (seven) than traditional offset printers (four colors). The additional colors increase the color gamut and create a print that matches the original very closely.
