@@cheo1949 No what I mean is sign both - that way if the mat is damaged you still have the signature on the print and you can mat all the way to the image. Great channel BTW, I'm looking into getting a new semi-pro printer and you have great advice!
A signature on the white might still be covered by a matte. This is what I do with a Mac: I photoshop an image, save it, then open it with Preview. Preview has a Signature function that allows you to photograph your paper signature with the computer camera, then add your signature on any document or photo with the background as alpha. (Photoshop might too, but I haven't found it. You can also make a signature in Photoshop with an alpha background but it's more clunky). I put my signature right on the image, in whichever colour contrasts the background most (usually black or white signature). Then you can re-open in Photoshop if you want to adjust and/or print from there. No pens necessary. Easy to move around in Preview until satisfied.
Good Lord...you take your pen or pencil of choice and sign your print at the border on the bottom. I truly didn't think you needed to be shown how to write!
Exactly my point. The other side of the coin, some print presentations would not allow you to sign on the print but I would still expect some PROOF of the artist having produced the work somewhere on the actual piece and no some where on a detachable Mat.
Beautiful oil painting! As for the topic, yes, it makes sense to sign the photo and not the matt as matt is replaceable. I am not 100% sure how it is normally done however I've heard that pro photographers sign photo and sometimes matt as well when the signature on the photo is not visible.
The actual piece is the one will intrinsic value. Not the mat. Not the frame. Not the joining board. If you do not sign the print... Hell, I can sign it and take credit for it right?
Hi. My name is Jsson. I am very interested in getting my small printin business ready to run. I've been peicing stuff together for a start up for just a little while now. My hopes are to somehow market and sale copies of my own photography taken while on my backpacking trips. However, I also hope to do printing for those who may have captured a photo and want to have it printed. A couple of days ago, zi purchased the Epson Surecolor P600 inkjet printer. It's still in the box, unopened, and I'm having trouble with the decision to purchase the P600. I am now thinking about returning it and purchasing the Epson Surecolor P800 instead. What are your thoughts on this change up? Also, if you are able to state preferences, wjich system do you prefer, as far as build quality, print copy, reliability and expense of materials and maintenance, The Epson systems or the Canon systems? Thank you for your time. Respectfully, Jason w.
How's it going there brother Jason? Did you decide to upgrade to the Surecolor p 800 after all? I hope you did, as it's always better to have something more advanced...even if you can't use it right now.... you can grow into it later on. My wife did that when deciding to buy a pro camera. She is also wanting to sell her prints. Hope all is well with you. Cheers!
Hey Joe, I know you must be busy with the new Canon 1000, but when you find time check out a free plugin from Redfield plugins called Sharplet. It uses a slider, and for free, works pretty darn good for sharpening photos quickly. Hope you and all your viewers can use it. Bill from So Calf.
I agree. Sign the art. Jose, do you have any recommendations for 13" rolls in glossy, pearl or even metallic? Red river only has blanco matte canvas. I have a Pro 10 and want to cut some 13x26 . Secondly what do you think of the Red river blanco matte canvas?
I have a few sheets of it and it work best when printed on with PK ink. So with the PRO-10 you must choose Fine Art and a matte choice and feed through the manual feeder. Then you deal with a 35 mm leading and trailing border.
PK mean Photo Black with is only for Glossy and luster papers. MK is Matte Black which is the black ink needed for printing onto Matte Canvas. Nothing to do with brands. The PRO-10 will ONLY us Matte Black ink when you manually choose Fine Art Papers that are Matte. Such as "Fine Art / Canvas" otherwise you will be printing with the more transparent Photo Black.
if you sign your name on the white border edge of the print, when that print gets matted and hung in a picture frame do you leave enough of the white border showing that shows the name too?
I use a mat that just covers about 1/4" all around and the print border is about 3 /4" all around the print. So a signature would clearly show. That's how my do it.
okay, definitely clear about where to put that signature on a print now....thanks for that info....btw your prints are really great...also my 2200 is printing much much better on all colors except for black, printing a test page, letting it rest for 1/2 day and then printing test page again...however, the light black ink may be clogged as I am not getting any dark blacks at all yet...
I am not getting any dark blacks at all...well i have inserted new light black and matte black inks in the 2200, they were using photo black before.....
Hi Jose, with my 1410 Epson printer, can you use satin paper on it, as Epson here in Australia say it dosnt support satin paper, I wanted to use satin. I downloaded the icc profile for satin. whats your view? and they the printer dosnt support 270 thickness in paper thickness only 255gsm whats your views?
All I can tell you is to try it and see how the printer handles it. But that printer model is really meant for lighter weight and thick glossy papers. But try and see. Check the driver for a setting to increase the gap to max.
Hi Jose, I was thinking of buying 13" roll of photo paper for my Epson 1410. do you think it would damage the paper if I put something on top of the paper to flatten the edges, do you recommend a way to do that?
Roll paper is extremely difficult to uncurl so for a printer that does not officially offer "Roll Support" I would suggest you get only cut sheets as they will be a lot flatter. Check red river paper site as they sometimes offer odd sizes and longer pano like sheet sizes.
I use a very sharp #2 pencil on matte find art papers and a fine black gel pen on a thing else. Then I spray them with either matte or glossy UV print spray.
This is still a little confusing, show exactly, do you sign the white border of the print or does your signature go on the print colored portion itself?
On the border only. Right below where the image border meets the border on the lower right. But you do know There is no official way to.do this. It's totally up to you.
Beatiful printing Jose,,,, Its like christmas every time you come whit a new wideo
Thank you!!!
Depending on framing you can sign the print and the mat, so no worry about covering the signature on the print.
But you better not lose or damage that mat.

A digital signature? Worthless in my book. She n you have a mat cut just make sure it does not cover up the REAL signature.
Holy geez dude! I wanted to know about signing a photo prints. I dont care about ink
Good Lord...you take your pen or pencil of choice and sign your print at the border on the bottom. I truly didn't think you needed to be shown how to write!
I'm with you. I'm in the camp that says sign the print. The mat can get separated from the print too easily.
Exactly my point. The other side of the coin, some print presentations would not allow you to sign on the print but I would still expect some PROOF of the artist having produced the work somewhere on the actual piece and no some where on a detachable Mat.

Yes, once you think about it that way it becomes clear what one needs sign :)
Yup!

I sure will try! Take care.
I bought a set for my pro 1 from you. They are milled to accept the fat chips. Will the flat chips work on them?
Of course. They will not be for sale just yet until the regular inventory is exhausted.

Love this guy!
Is is alright to use Krylon Kamar Varnish for prints?
What kind of pen are you using to sign the photo
I use a very sharp #2 pencil on matte find art papers and a fine black gel pen on a thing else. Then I spray them with either matte or glossy UV print spray.
@@cheo1949what do you spray? The signature only or the entire print? Do you have a name brand for the type of pen you use? Thank you.
This is still a little confusing, show exactly, do you sign the white border of the print or does your signature go on the print colored portion itself?
On the border only. Right below where the image border meets the border on the lower right. But you do know There is no official way to.do this. It's totally up to you.
My wife is a photographer and she signs her nature pics on the border but her modeling pictures on the photo itself. Depends on the pic.
if the printer accepts 4x6 at 255gsm, surely the printer can accept 13x38inch paper at 255gms is that right?
I would have to agree. As long as the transport mechanism can pull it through.
