FAQ

Our Print Sample Promotion (Try our Printing at a Special Price) is the best way to find out. Upload one file and receive prints on multiple papers — silver gelatin fiber and RC for black and white, or three fine art inkjet papers of your choice for color — so you can evaluate the results in hand before committing to a larger order. Every PSP order includes a $25 coupon toward your next print.

A silver gelatin print is made through a photochemical process — light exposes silver halide crystals on the paper surface, which are then developed in chemistry. At DSI, we expose black and white Ilford silver gelatin photo paper using a photographic laser enlarger directly from your digital file. The result is a genuine black and white silver print — not an inkjet reproduction — with a completely neutral tone, proven archival permanence, and a rich deep tonal range.

A silver gelatin print is made through a photochemical process — light exposes silver halide crystals on the paper surface, which are then developed in chemistry. An inkjet (giclée) print is made by spraying microscopic dots of pigment ink onto the paper surface. Both can achieve museum quality results, but silver gelatin prints offer a unique tonal continuity and archival character that cannot be replicated by inkjet printing. DSI produces both, and our Print Sample Promotion is a great way to compare them side by side.

Fine art printing refers to the production of photographic and artist prints using archival materials and professional-grade processes designed for longevity, color accuracy, and exhibition quality. At DSI, fine art printing means silver gelatin prints on fiber base Ilford paper or inkjet pigment prints on papers from Hahnemühle, Canson Infinity, and Ilford — all produced on professionally maintained equipment by an experienced team.
