Digital Photo Printing

Now that you have purchased a fine quality digital camera and
finally got that

great shot of the baby that you would like to get enlarged and
framed, how do

you know the digital photo enlargement you order from that
online printer will

last without fading?



A good price is nice, but in the world of digital printing,
there is a world of

difference in the quality and archival properties (non-fading),
of digital prints.

Differences range from the quality and weight of the
photographic papers, to

the type and durability of the inks used. The greatest
difference may be in the

actual print quality, or printing resolution, of the digital
printer.

All in all....a basic general knowledge of the differences out
there can be the

difference between a beautiful framed image and a complete
disappointment.



Photographic papers for digital prints range from very light
weight, economical

papers, to professional grade, heavy weight durable papers.
Economical papers

range from 5mil to 7mil thickness and can be damaged by creasing
very easily.

Because the resin coatings on these economical papers are
thinner, the printed

image may not be as stable and durable, which can result in
color shifting in the

print. If you are looking for a one time use with a photo, this
may work for you.



If you are expecting your photo enlargement to last for many
year with a vibrant

dynamic image, I would always recommend using the professional
grade photo

papers. These papers will be of 10mil thickness and rated with a
weight of 250gm.



The type of inks used in digital printing have the most to do
with your photo print

lasting for years without fading and color shifting. There are
basically two types of

inks, dye inks and pigmented inks. Pigmented inks are produced
from organic

materials and will last the longest with the greatest UV and
stability protection.



The final, and most important point related to high quality
digital prints is the print

resolution or printing dpi of the digital printer. Generally,
the higher the printing

resolution, the finer quality the print. Higher resolutions will
produce a fuller, more

detailed image, close to what's refered to as "solid tone"
printing. Many printers

use systems with 600dpi or 1200dpi resolutions. These will
produce nice prints,

but for the finest quality digital prints, you will want to find
printers with higher

resolutions like 1440dpi or 2880dpi. These will produce the best
visual prints.



As a rule of thumb, you will want to deal with printers that
offer a satisfaction

guarantee. If a printer does not guarantee their work, how good
can it be?
