Our
new FREE software enabling customers to order digital prints
directly over the internet is now active. It makes ordering prints
from your digital images quick and easy. Various print sizes are
available up to a maximum of 50 x 30 on both gloss and satin matt
paper surface.
The step by
step procedure guides you through the process of selecting your
images from your hard drive, connects you directly to our print
server and uploads your images to our print queue. Your images are
then printed on to Fuji Crystal Archive photographic paper and returned
to you by first class post.
This software
utilises the latest JPEG2000 technology, optimising your images
for a faster upload without any loss of quality in the resulting
prints. Average upload times can be up to five times faster than
other software not utilising JPEG2000.
