Giclée (pronounced Gee-Clay) Giclée comes from the French word meaning literally 'to squirt' referring to the process in which the ink is laid down on the paper. The print heads on an inkjet printer spray out a pattern of very small dots that make up the final image. Giclée is the name commonly given to an inkjet limited edition reproduction of an artwork, photograph or digitally created work. It will be printed on archival grade artist's quality coated paper, with pigment (UV stable) inks. There are four main steps to creating a giclée print using the Mandev range of papers. The main advantage of printing digitally, is that you can print on demand,
therefore, cutting costs by only printing what you sell in the edition. You
don't have unsold prints to store, and you have the option to print your work at
different sizes and on different paper types, with ease. You are not committed
to the high quantities or costs of offset litho printing. This means the artist,
gallery or publisher has much greater control over both the process and the
cost.
