Product Description

Book Description

Written for photographers, digital and traditional artists, printmakers, art educators, and art marketers, "Mastering Digital Printing" is the first complete reference to the new world of digital printing for photography and fine art. This authoritative book provides a thorough introduction to this exploding medium, instruction in the latest digital printing techniques, and an inspiring Gallery Showcase of the best of digitally imaged and printed art and photography.

Part overview and part how-to, "Mastering Digital Printing: The Photographer's and Artist's Guide to High-Quality Digital Output" not only walks you through a complete, step-by-step workflow for making a great inkjet print, but it also covers the pluses and minuses of using the print technologies of digital photoprint (LightJet, Lambda) and photo process (Fuji Frontier, Pictrography), dye sublimation, and electrophotography (color lasers).

You will learn about: how to pick the right inkjet printer, how to choose inks and papers, color management, print permanence, RIPs, self-printing versus using a professional printmaker, the difference between original prints and reproductions, wide-format vs. desktop printers, and advanced printing and image-editing techniques. Other special features include: an extensive resource section listing digital suppliers and digital-friendly galleries, art shows and contests; plenty of sidebars, charts, diagrams, and photos illustrating the book's text; and the first, accurate history of digital fine-art printmaking as well as the true origin of the term "giclée."

"Mastering Digital Printing" is an invaluable guide and resource for anyone who has a hand in printing photographic or fine-art images digitally. There is no comprehensive reference to the digital printing revolution like this book.

This review is from: Mastering Digital Printing, Second Edition (Paperback)
when i got this book, I expected to be about work flow, color calibration, making ur prints match your monitors, making beautiful prints with details every where, etc

i was quite disappointed, because it didn't deal with these kidn of things at all,

no where is this book about "mastering" printing techniques.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good book- lots of good foundation info, Jun 18 2004
By 
This review is from: Mastering Digital Printing (Paperback)
I like this book for 2 reason- One as a amatur printer- it gave me a lot of good ideas for projects and 2. As an IT pro who has to support this type of technology at time in our printing plants, it helped fill in the gaps I had in my printing and imaging specific knowledge. This book covers a broad range of topics- so think of it more as a primer to get you ready for more advanced topics in other books.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Good Enought, April 19 2004
This review is from: Mastering Digital Printing (Paperback)
When I first started to read this book I was really impressed. Then I kept trying to find specific information that I could use. There is very little. A good book for history and hype, but there are better books for useful knowledge. I would suggest Kieran's Photoshop Color Correction.
