OVERVIEW
Archival Inkjet Printing, also known as Pigment or Giclée Printing, is the preferred digital printing choice for artists due to its longevity and versatility. We use an Epson 11880 and Epson SureColor P10000 to print the finest digital prints.
To begin the process of creating exhibition-ready prints, we work from high-resolution camera files or film scans. Post-production services are available if your files are not yet "print ready." Proofing is available at an additional cost prior to final printing.
ARCHIVAL INKJET PAPERS
iolabs offers a wide range of papers for any artistic medium. Each paper is hand-selected and tested in our studio to ensure that we trust every paper we offer our clients to perform perfectly each and every time. If you are unsure of what paper would work best for your imagery, the iolabs team would be happy to assist in making a suggestion.
GALLERY SERVICES
From archival presentation methods, to short term displays, iolabs has solutions that are uniquely different for presenting your work.
PLEXI FACE-MOUNTS: Plexi Face-Mounts are an ultra-contemporary frameless finish, that give images a whole new depth and vibrancy.
FLOAT BRACKETS // FRAMELESS MOUNTING: Float brackets provide a contemporary way to hang artwork without having to frame your work. Float brackets are adhered to the back of a mounting substrate with a 2" inset from the edge of the artwork and float off the wall 1".
FLOAT FRAMES + PANEL BOXES: Custom contemporary framing using hardwood in either natural or stained colors to present work in a way it can speak for itself.
BLACK AND WHITE PRINTING
By collaborating with black and white photographers over the past 15+ years, iolabs has strived to be the best service to those seeking a digital print solution that mimics darkroom qualities. To get the perfect black and white print, you have to bring the consistency of digital technology and inkjet printing, together with a passion for making beautifully toned and perfect images. At iolabs we have tested our printers, our papers, and a wide range of images, to know that our black and white printing process is flawless.
Whether we are working from a scan or a digital file, the process of getting the perfect print will take time and attention to every detail of the image. iolabs recommends coming in for a consultation at the start of the process, with the possibility of a round of proofing before the final print stage. Please contact a team member to begin your project.
PRINT EDITIONS
iolabs offers printing services to create high-quality reproductions of your original artwork in either limited or open editions. In some cases limiting the edition of your images can drive up the demand, and as an additional incentive iolabs offers discounts for editions printed all at once. If you would like to discuss how many reproductions to order at one time, please email us.
SHIPPING + FULFILLMENT
iolabs is pleased to offer shipping and fulfillment services that save our clients time and money. We are happy to package and send prints directly to your buyers. While USPS Priority shipping is our standard shipping method, we are also able to use Fedex or UPS at no extra charge. Cost is based on where the package is shipping to, plus our packaging fee. We use custom, secure packaging to make sure your work is protected when handled.
