From special gloss-optimized prints, to enhanced matte black ink printing, their Ultra-HD-MK carbon ink is the darkest carbon ink in the world for digital pigment printing, enhancing the look of your screen-native images into deep, rich physical prints.Īdditionally, the 11-ink color range used allows for the highest gamut of saturated outputs in pigment printing. In the late 1990s Cone turned their attention to developing inks, file handling processes, and in-printer software for EPSON to lead the revolution in inkjet print for what has become an entire generation of digital printmakers.Ĭone Editions Press specially formulates their own inks to produce archival pigments that create the richest colors and tones possible today. The studio’s early emphasis was on direct applications including hand drawn screenprints, aquatint photogravures, and monoprints – and now maintains practices in the world’s leading techniques for photopolymer plate gravure, print-out platinum palladium printing, and many other tradition-based print methods.

These innovations are borne from a respect and deep understanding of tradition. Therefore, the processes used for your prints are actually beyond industry-leading, in that their latest revolutions in color accuracy, print density, and other image-perfecting techniques are always kept in-house before rolling out to industry partners and their clients. The top printers in the world utilize Cone Editions innovations for image pre-processing, custom printer software, and proprietary ink formulations. This experience, and their background as artists themselves, create an intuitive ability to bring out color and details at their best. By using carbon black inks, exceptional Hahnemühle papers, and white glove art-handling practices, your prints are delivered in certified archival status.Ĭone Editions works with world-renowned artists to print artworks in a variety of traditional and digital processes, using over four decades of experience to reach extraordinary levels of quality not found in even most high-end print shops. While many other print processes exist, there is nothing that can take a digital file to this level of accuracy and feel. With the proprietary approach developed by Cone Editions (see details below), the pigment printing process spans the best reproduction characteristics available to serve both photographic/tonal imagery, and graphic/sharp imagery. Prints offered through Tender are pigment-based, which is the same thing as inkjet or ‘giclee’ printing.
