Carbon Pigment Giclee (can be shortened to "CPG Print" -- although 
"print" is a tad redundant) -- Simple and Informative, while still 
retaining some panache..

OOOps, hope the French speakers and Francophones aren't disturbed 
umbrage by my use of "panache."

For those to whom Giclee only refers to a specific process, I would note 
that "Xerox" is not the specific term it once was either..
