This one-session workshop is designed to teach you how to make archival inkjet prints on our Canon P-1000, which prints sheets up to 17 x 25 inches. In the workshop, we will cover the essential steps necessary to create a beautiful, balanced print using Aurora’s digital lab. Participants will make 2 prints during the workshop on 11 x 14 Moab luster paper.

Covered in the workshop:

* Resolution, bit depth, and your print
* Which file formats are best for printing
* Using print profiles
* Previewing your print with soft proofing
* Making basic adjustments to brightness, contrast, and color balance
* Choosing the right paper for your image

What to bring to the workshop:

* A digital file edited and ready to print with the longest edge no longer than 10.5 inches at 300dpi.
* After registering, you can send us your file to test to make sure it’s ready for the workshop.

Prior knowledge of printing is not necessary for this workshop. This workshop is best suited to artists 16+ years old; minors must be accompanied by an adult. 

This workshop will be taught by Lab Manager Carlos Perez. All sessions are taught at Aurora PhotoCenter.
