Superior printing technology
We believe that when printing colour photographs, there is
nothing like dye sublimation. That’s why all of our photofinishing
systems are built upon this superior printing technology.
It quite simply produces photo-realistic, continuous-tone
images that look like they came from a photo lab.
A thermal print head, consisting of thousands of heating
elements, contacts the media being printed on and vaporises
the solid dyes. The resulting gas diffuses into the surface of the
paper. What makes these printers unique is that the
heating elements on the print head can be set to any one of
256 temperatures. This precise control of the amount of dye
that’s vaporised controls the intensity of the resulting dot on the
paper and produces continuous-tone images. Other printing
methods, such as inkjet cannot gradate each dot and simply
can’t achieve the same results.
