  1. <p>Thank you very much!</p>

    <p>Yeah, that is a great advice - will look for a framing shop nearby to give me some pointers.<br>

    You mention they do your dry mounting, can you be more specific what they do with your prints? Do you drymount it to an acrylic sheet, glass or lamination sheet? If so which one do they use? </p>

    <p>Also, do you have any more information on the Metallic you are talking about? I´ve been looking for inkjet papers with metallic look, so very interested in that as well. :-)</p>

    <p>Cheers!</p>

     

  2. <p>Hello,<br /><br /><br />I have recently bought a Canon IPF 8300 inkjet printer that will allow me to print 44" wide. I´m a landscape photographer who is new to the process of printing/presenting work, and I seek advice.<br /><br />I enjoy the work of artists like Peter Lik, Rodney Lough and Michael Fatali.<br /><br />They mostly use halide process with Crystal Archive Paper, giving the prints an almost backlit sensation to them. I´m trying to get as close as possible with this printer/my prints, and therefor I´m seeking advice on the following:<br /><br />1. What type of inkjet paper would you recommend me?<br />2. How should the prints be mounted, would you recommend behind glass, acrylic or without?<br />3. What machine will help me complete the "lamination" process of large prints up to 40x60". Am I looking at Dry Press, warm/cold or cold roll lamination? <br />4. What adhesive would be recommended to start with?<br /><br />And I know this is the artists self interest to experiment and figure out the exact technique to present his prints. But I am a beginner in this field, so any advice at all would be greatly appreciated and would help me find my way in this vast field of equipment, products and styles. <br /><br /><br />Thank you very much!</p>
