Giclee Reproduction

A 32x48 canvas gallery wrap ready to ship out

R.L. Charpentier specializes in Giclee Reproductions for painters, pen and ink artists, photographers, and more.  If it’s something that can be digitally imaged, we can help you reproduce it!

Current Technologies

At present, we offer reproduction work generated on HP’s Z3100 platform, and Canon’s IPF 8300 platform as well.  Each printer is a 12 ink system offering some of the best color ranges in the industry.  Both platforms offer archival inks, and run rolls of media up to 44″ wide by 100 feet long.

The HP Z3100 is our primary canvas reproduction system at present.  The newly added 8300 from Canon will be our Photo paper workhorse going forward.  Clients are welcome to have proof pieces run on each machine to determine their preferences in reproduction quality.  Frankly, both systems will run canvases that should stun clients!

Reproduction media

Our canvases and matte papers are all produced by Breathing Color.  It’s the preferred stock for RL Charpentier Photography.  Additionally we’ve now started carrying Red River’s Polar Pearl Metallic.  It’s an appealing alternative to your standard gloss for photographers looking for an increased dynamic range.

Feel free to stop by the Ian Russell Gallery any time to see our workspace and paper samples.

Of course, custom papers are always available if you want a specific media.  We profile all of our papers in house to ensure the most accurate reproduction quality again and again.
