Advantage of printing with HP Vivera Inks

Giclée is a French word meaning spraying of ink. Giclée (pronounced “zhee-clay”) a Giclée print is an archival print using only pigmented inks — not dye inks, which can fade. The archival papers are acid free 100% cotton, all rag paper. The ink is sprayed on specially prepared paper or canvas by a large format ink jet printer with a very high resolution print head. Giclees are one of the finest reproduction methods available today. The depth of color far surpasses that of lithographs. Lithographs use the same process as printing a magazine, litho inks have dyes in them which is absorbed into the paper and will fades over time. Pigment based inks are superior in archival quality than dye based inks. More information @ Giclée Print Net, Inc. gicleeprint.net/
