Quality Printing Services

by Scott Thompson

I now provide my printing services at a per square foot charge.

My prints are done on an Epson 9600 set up to run pigment inks (archival inks). I print on matte surfaces with inks optimized for matte surfaces. All papers I use have had custom color profiles built for them and my printer. This profile makes sure I am getting the best, full color gamut available on my specific printer. I also calibrate my monitor using a Spyder2PRO to make sure the colors on my monitor match my prints. If I notice a color issue in your image, I can contact you before I print it to address the issue.

My Rates:

$16 / sq. ft.

You are charged for the actual square footage of your image. A 1-3 inch white boarder is included at no additional charge.

Paper Choices:

Fine Art, 100% cotton rag, acid free, / 300 gsm paper

Available in the following sheet sizes:

8.5x11 , 11x17, 13x19, 17x22, 24x36, 35x47

When sizing your image, is must be smaller than the actual paper size. Leave space for at least a one inch boarder. Except for the 8.5x11 paper, the max image size is 8x10 on that paper. You are only charged for the square footage of your actual image, not the white boarder.

Canvass - 100% cotton acid free

Available in the following roll widths:

26" , 36" , 44" wide

Again, please leave at least a one inch boarder for width boarders. These are on rolls, so the height size is only limited by the roll itself - 40 feet. Up to a three inch boarder is provided at no additional charge, any boarder larger than that will be charged as if it were part of your image.

Quantity Discount :

Additional prints of the same image, same size, ordered at the same time are 10% off the normal rate.

"Ready to sell" PACKAGING :

I can provide "ready to sell" packaging of your prints. This includes acid free foam board sized to your print and a clear plastic wrap with adhesive for your image. The adhesive won't be applied so you can remove your image easily for quality check and signing.

This is available at:

$5.00 / sq. ft.

This refers to the cut size not the image size. Sorry, no quantity discounts on this service.

Shipping:

Free delivery by me in the Tahoe and Reno areas. UPS shipping any where else in the USA.

$7 for prints up to 13"x19"

$15 for prints larger than 13"x19" up to 24"x36"

$30 for prints larger than 24"x36" up to 44" wide prints.

If you have more than one item of the same size, you will not be charged for the additional shipping. The additional print will come in the same shipment package.

For orders outside of the USA, please contact me for a shipping price.

Payment:

Check, Cash, or Charge.

My shopping cart is not set up for these services so you will need to call me with credit card orders. All printing will begin when the check clears or charge is approved.

What you will need to send me:

So you've read all the above and you've decided you still want to use my services. Please send me the following:

----- A CD with your image or images on it. Unless requested, this will not be returned, but instead archived for future orders. (I will try to set up an ftp soon for uploading large files.)

- File Format: I prefer flattened un-compressed RGB TIFF files for a PC, 8-bit per channel. PSD or JPEG's will work. 360 ppi at output size is optimum, 180 ppi will also do if you don't have the resolution to give. Believe it or not, 180 actually prints better than 300 on my machine.

----- The following information on paper:

- Name, address, shipping address, phone, date

- Print type: fine art rag or canvass

- File format used

- File name, exact image size, exact paper size, number of copies, and resolution

- Any special notes or comments

----- Payment: Please send the appropriate amount as a check made out to Scott Thompson or call me with your credit card info at (530) 277-7890. If you need help determining your price, please send me an e-mail with the image size and paper size you would like, and I will reply asap.

--- Please send all requested materials to: Scott Thompson, 12297 Schussing Way, Truckee, CA 96161

If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me either by phone (530) 277-7890 or e-mail me.
