When printing large format

Proof print your image

If you are printing anything bigger than A3 it is a good idea to order a proof printing strip. This way you will really know what your large format print will look and feel like.

Preparing

Your strip

The strip size is 1100 × 100 mm or 44″ × 4″. If your image’s width is smaller than 1100 mm you can place different parts of your image on the strip.

It’s a good idea to choose the most important part of your image to be proof printed. For design, illustration and painting reproduction choose the most colourful or complex area. For photography choose an area with highlights, shadows and mid tones to check the tonal range of your print.
