Print Scanning

Treasured prints and documents are professionally scanned and converted to quality JPG files that are easily stored, shared and printed.

At Harold's Photo, we offer a variety of different scanning services and have the ability to scan photos, artwork, recipies, documents and much more! We carefully save your scans to USB for archiving, viewing and printing.

Prints are scanned at the original size of the print with a resolution of 300 dpi. These scans are perfect for archiving and will produce products up to the original print size. Pricing is based on print sizes 2½x3½” to 8x12”. An additional $1.00 per print charge applies to any damaged or mounted prints, prints smaller than 2½x3½” and prints larger than 8x12” but smaller than 11x17”. Front and back of image scanning counts as two individual scans. All orders are saved to USB.

Specialty Print Scanning

1200 dpi Hi-Res Scan $24.99
    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.
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*
    Oversized Specialty Scans are completed with enough resolution to produce a print the same size as the original. *USB included with scan
