Create Your Giclée PrintWhat Is a Giclée Print?
Giclée printing is a professional fine art inkjet printing process used for high-quality reproductions of photography, paintings, illustrations and digital artwork. It combines professional pigment inks, high-precision printing equipment, colour-managed production and carefully selected photographic or fine art papers.
The result is a print designed to retain subtle tonal transitions, fine image detail, rich blacks and the character of the original artwork while giving you much greater control over paper texture and finish than everyday photo printing.
Giclée Prints vs Standard Photo Prints
Both have their place. Giclée printing is designed for customers who want greater control over paper, size, colour reproduction and the final presentation of their work.
| Standard Photo Prints | Giclée Prints | |
|---|---|---|
| Typical Use | Everyday photographs | Photography, artwork & fine art reproduction |
| Paper Choice | Standard photo papers | Cotton rag, textured, baryta, satin, metallic & more |
| Ink | Depends on the printing process | Professional pigment inks |
| Sizes | Mostly standard formats | Standard, large-format & custom sizes |
| Best For | Everyday photo printing | Premium display, artists, photographers & meaningful photographs |
Epson 12-Colour Pigment Printing
Our Giclée prints are produced using professional Epson 12-colour pigment printing technology and genuine Epson inks.
Variable ink droplets as small as 3.5 picolitres allow extremely precise ink placement, helping reproduce fine detail, delicate highlights, subtle gradients, natural skin tones, deep blacks and smooth tonal transitions.
Choose the Right Fine Art Paper
The paper is part of the finished artwork. Texture, surface sheen, paper tone and weight can all change how colour, contrast and detail are perceived.

| William Turner 310gsm | Matte | Strong texture | Paintings & watercolour reproductions |
| Photo Rag Satin 310gsm | Satin | Light | Photography with a subtle sheen |
| Photo Rag Baryta 315gsm | High Gloss | Fine | Deep blacks, contrast & photography |
| Photo Rag Metallic 340gsm | Metallic | Fine | Architecture, water & dramatic images |
| Museum Etching 350gsm | Matte | Textured | Traditional fine art reproduction |

Image Quality Matters
Large-format printing can reveal limitations that may not be visible on a phone or small computer screen. For the best result, upload the highest-resolution original image available.
Whenever possible, avoid screenshots, social-media downloads and heavily compressed files.

Not sure whether your file is suitable for the size you want? Send us your image before ordering. We can check the image quality, proportions and likely enlargement result.
You do not need to place an order first.
support@customcanvasonline.com.auColour-Managed Printing
Our production team follows established colour-management and quality-control procedures to achieve consistent professional output.
Exact screen-to-print matching cannot be guaranteed because screens emit light, while printed paper is viewed through reflected light. Monitor calibration, brightness, room lighting and the selected paper can all affect perceived colour.
Made for Long-Term Display
Genuine professional pigment inks combined with suitable fine art media are designed for excellent long-term colour stability and display permanence.
Actual longevity depends on the selected paper, framing, UV exposure, temperature, humidity and storage conditions. For maximum protection, avoid prolonged direct sunlight and use appropriate archival framing where required.
