Canvas Print, as its name, generally refers to professional quality reproduction of image onto canvas (as base media), instead of paper. The printing technology is known as Giclée (pronounced “zhee-clay”, is an invented name for the process of making fine art prints from a digital source).   The word “Giclée”, from the French language word “le gicleur” meaning “nozzle”, or more specifically “gicler” (meaning: to squirt, spurt, or spray).   Giclées are specifically targeted to being displayed in indoor lighting; generally bright, direct lighting, such as galleries or offices. Quality reproduction, color fidelity and long term archivability are the major attributes of Giclée printing machines.   In general, Giclée is similar to ink-jet or burble jet technology (Inkjet – commonly used in HP printer; Burble jet – Canon printer). Both techniques use liquid ink fired through specially designed print heads.   However, the terms have evolved to refer to separate and specific printing methods and there are major differences between the two.
