What is a giclée? (pronounced zgee-clay)
In its most basic definition, giclée is a French term for “to spray” or “to squirt”. It references the process that an inkjet printer uses to reproduce fine art or photography to create individual copies of the original piece. However, not all inkjet printers can produce giclée prints. It all boils down to these four elements: resolution, ink, paper, and printer type.
Resolution - To be able to make such a high-quality print, the camera or scanner used to capture or scan the art must be able to do so with a high level of resolution. To compare, most digital photos are recorded at a resolution of 72 DPI (dots per inch) on the screen and the image file of an art print needs to be at least 300 DPI—because the more dots of color that can be printed in a small area, the more detailed your final image will appear.
Ink and Paper - The ink and paper must be high quality and considered “archival”. This is typically achieved using inks that are pigment-based instead of dye-based and any paper, canvas, watercolor paper, or specialty printing paper must be of sufficient quality.
Printing - Printers are typically larger models that are able to hold up to 12 ink cartridges which produce a wider range of colours.
