A giclee (pronounced "zee-clay") comes from the French word, "fine spray".
It is a digital plotter-based (large format) print that is produced by the
application of millions of tiny ink droplets sprayed onto fine art paper or
canvas.The archival based inks used are specially formulated so that the fine print
heads spray droplets at a resolution of 1200 dpi. The media used is also of
archival grade and can last from 100 to 200 years.
The visual quality of the print is extremely high and the color saturation
and definition stunning. Since printing is of "photo quality" the quality of
the print's appearance is directly related to the quality of the image
provided. Based upon that premise, an image file with overall good color and
tonal contrast and of a high resolution turn out the best prints
