Upstairs Art Printing - Diverisity through Technology

We are pleased to announce that 'Upstairs Art Printing' will be operating from 2nd November 2009.

'Upstairs Art Printing' will be using the latest wide format printing technolgy with the Prograf Canon 6200 inkjet pigment printer, using a 60cm wide format. This technology produces archival quality prints for photos and images on a whole range of media products.

For photographic, proofing and fine art use, the Canon iPF6200 wide format printer, used by Upstairs Art Printing, is a 24in or A1 printer (in metric, a 610mm width) with no less than 12 on-board colours that collectively read less as a list and more as a memory-teaser: cyan, magenta, yellow, red, green, blue, photo black, matt black, photo cyan, photo magenta, grey and photo grey. The ‘photo’ colours give more of a glossy finish than the standard inks, while the matt black works best with satin coated papers. Each is triggered automatically by the iPF6200 if you use Canon’s media profiles, which work not just with Canon’s own media, but also with specialist papers from other manufacturers.

Upstairs Art Printing using its Canon iPF6200 can deliver a huge number of dots per inch, namely 2,400x1,200. The printheads are Canon’s tried-and-tested bubblejet arrays, with a fixed droplet size of 4pl per colour and six colours in each of two heads. The tiny droplet size works together with the 12 inks to produce smoothest-ever gradations of tone.
