I run my own UK based Print Agency & can provide the complete design, photographic, & print solution for the fashion industry.
For any print projects requiring top class high resolution photographic images, Spencer Print uses the Staccato Process.
Some images are particularly tough to reproduce—even with conventional and hybrid AM/FM screens. When images contain complex skin tones, shadows or exceptionally fine details, they need special screening to improve fidelity, deepen colours, open shadows and accentuate details.has the screening technology to make images pop.
The Staccato process applies advanced, second-order FM screening software at the pre-proof stage to deliver near-photographic fidelity to a broad range of applications. Rich colours bring images to life With every print job, our goal is to produce high-impact images with pure and saturated colours, well-defined shadows, sharp texture and striking detail.
Staccato halftone screening delivers these results through fine microdot structures that behave more like continuous ink film to deliver cleaner colours and distribute ink more evenly throughout the tonal range.
This innovative technique helps overcome variations in tone and colour caused by typical solid ink density and paper colour variations. A new generation of screen technology delivers exceptionally clear, vibrant printed images. Screening has no frequency or angle; hence, it eliminates screening moiré,subject moiré and rosette patterns. The organization of dots eliminates shade stepping and abrupt tone changes in vignettes. And it produces smoother tints with both PMS and process colours.
The screening is twice the resolution of conventional litho printing.
