Specialty Print Scanning
1200 dpi Hi-Res Scan • $19.99
This scan is best utilized for obtaining the highest resolution scan from a small sized original. Ideally it is used when a customer has a small original like a 2.5x3.5 and they want to try and produce a much larger print like a 16x20.
As a general rule, scanning at 300 dpi will allow a customer to produce the same size print as their original. Scanning at 600 dpi will produce a print 2 times the original size. In most cases, scanning a print larger than 5x7 at 1200 dpi is unnecessary. Remember, a poor quality original cannot be improved by scanning at a higher resolution. Scans completed with enough resolution to produce a print the same size as the original.
Larger than 12x18 up to 16x20 • $39.99
Larger than 16x20 up to 20x30 • $54.99
Larger than 20x30 up to 30x40 • $74.99
Over 30x40 • Ask for Estimate
