Scanning

Scanning is the most important step in the process of digital printing. You must begin with a good scan if you are hoping to be left with a great print. We do our very best to capture every detail in the shadows, highlights and the tonal details in between to give you as good a scan a possible.

If you would like your artwork scanned, you would need to make an appointment to drop off the work, which will take at least 2 days to scan.

We are able to capture any artwork, up to a size of approximately 48”x60”.

We do traditional flatbed scanning which can capture every fine detail of an artwork for pieces size up to 11x17” for a cost of $35 - $55 per piece depending on the ppi you require

We can also scan larger works up to APPROXIMATELY 16”x26” in sections on the flatbed scanner and reassemble them in post production, giving you a very high quality scan of a larger piece. This is what is considered a hack and does not always perform well. We are always willing to try and if the process fails, we won’t charge you. This process is $70 - $110 per piece depending on the ppi you require

We photograph with a 50mp Hasselblad all artwork of a size larger than approximately 16”x26”. The size of the artwork will determine that price, starting at $95 each.

NOTE: We do not accept paintings or artworks which contain wet or damp paint, or have residue of any kind of the surface. Also, artworks which have a shiny reflective surface may not photograph or scan very well. We cannot scan gold leaf.
