Paper Prints
At Canvascanada.ca we offer two main paper options for all your photo and fine art reproduction needs. While most digital labs are offering thin 7-9 mil thick prints with limited color range we offer the best papers we can source to reproduce stunning colour results with true "as lit" colour.Not only do we source heavy weight photo stock for printing but we also leave additional white border on all of our prints for easy handling and framing purposes.
Canvascanada.ca currently does all of its photo prints and canvas on machines that offer 10 separate ink colours to bring you the smoothest, sharpest, and most colour accurate image possible. All of our work is printed at 1440x1440 dpi with archival pigmented inks for decades of fade resistant enjoyment.
All orders are printed with no automatic colour editing and are straight processed with any embedded icc profiles (make sure to make your edits as you see fit). We do encourage the use of colour calibrated monitors when completing your digital edits to ensure the best screen match to print possible. We calibrate all paper profiles in house to offer the broadest colour gamut and the most neutral black and white images possible.
Below you will find a description of our main paper types (selected on the order form) Note that descriptions for our canvas and our self adhesive, removable, repositionable "sticky" prints are found in their respective sections of the website.
