NancyScans

The NancyScans KRIST’L LightJet Fine Art Archival Print was first introduced in 1999.  It is most popular among artists and fine art photographers as it has a wide gamut that can accurately capture the subtle colors that reside in the original file.

Prints have been independently tested by Wilhelm-Research to have a minimum life expectancy of 60 years or more. KRIST’L prints have a wide color gamut, vivid color and sharpness.

LightJet vs. Inkjet

LightJet is a true photographic process resulting in continuous tone output. Xerography (Laser Printers) and Inkjet (Giclee) rely on a halftone process to reproduce digital images on paper, canvas, and transparency. Since the Lightjet photographic process is free of half-tone screens, posterization and banding are absent as well.

The LightJet Process uses Silver-halide photographic paper affixed to an internal drum.Three lasers simultaneously expose the photo-sensitive paper (or back-lit transparency medium) with red, green, and blue light. This light-path includes a spinning surface coated mirror mounted on an air-bearing that travels along the axis of the internal drum, thus reflecting the laser light at 90 degrees to ensure a perfectly round imaging dot across the entire area of the photographic paper. This round imaging dot is critical for edge to edge sharpness of the print. The print is then processed using traditional photochemical means. After which, the photographic print is handled just as any other photo-print.
