Re: [Digital BW] Are Quadtone prints "Giclee"

2001-10-13 by Bernhard Ess

Giclee print IMO is just a more noble word for "inkjet" print - comes from french word "giclée" (bubble) - was originally used for the IRIS printer, nowadays sometimes used for "fine art prints".

  Is it appropriate and/or acceptable to refer to quadtone prints (using piezo
  or MIS inks on an epson printer) as Giclee prints?

  If not, why not?
