Digital Silver Gelatin Printing
Also known as Digital Bromides, black and white silver gelatin prints imaged via Digital Output devices such as the Durst Lambda and the Océ LightJet, have been developed for the art market by Ilford Imaging – now Harman Technology in collaboration with Steve McLeod. By adapting a large format paper processor in conjunction with the manufacturers, Steve’s innovation lead the way for the possibility of producing large Resin Coated (RC) and Fibre Based (FB) black and white prints. Ilford, in collaboration with Metro Imaging, London adapted their FB Galerie emulsion paper and its light sensitivity so that it would be receptive to full spectrum RGB laser channels. Metro Imaging are now one of only a handful of places in the world that are licensed to produce silver gelatin prints using Ilford Galerie FB paper from a digital source.
