We Don't Just Print. We Replicate.

There is a difference between a "poster" and a "fine art reproduction." That difference is chemistry.

Abbot Art utilizes the industry-leading Canon 12-Color Pigment Dispersion System. Unlike standard 4-color (CMYK) printers used by budget labs, our system includes dedicated RGB, Gray, and Photo Gray channels. This allows us to achieve:

  • True Black & White: Neutral grays with no color cast.
  • D-Max Density: The deepest, richest blacks possible on matte paper.
  • Zero Bronzing: A Chroma Optimizer coating that eliminates the "metallic" glare often seen on dark ink.

Curated Archival Substrates

The paper is 50% of the art. We stock only acid-free, lignin-free substrates from the world's premier mills.

Printing FAQ

What file resolution do I need?

For optimal crispness, we recommend 300 DPI at the final print size. However, for very large prints (over 24x36"), 150-200 DPI is often sufficient due to viewing distance. We accept TIFF (preferred for quality) and JPEG.

How do I ensure the color is accurate?

We use a fully color-managed workflow with custom ICC profiles. We recommend you calibrate your monitor and embed the Adobe RGB (1998) color profile in your files. For critical editions, please request a hard proof strip before the full run.

Do you offer volume discounts for trade?

Yes. We have a tiered pricing structure for Trade Professionals, Galleries, and Artists ordering editions or volume fulfillment. Please contact us to set up a Trade Account.
