Print Run 1 - D S Colour Labs

 

With these photographs being printed by D S Colour Labs, it is important that they are sent early to ensure that they are ready for Saturday 22nd January 2011, when this course finishes.

I have used D S Colour Labs before and I am happy with the quality of their work, previous less important orders were seen as test prints, and based on these I am more than happy for them to undertake this job.

I use the online printing option provided

The first stage was to select the print size and finish for the photographs

Next it was a case of selecting the photographs and uploading them to D S Colour Labs

Once the photographs had been uploaded it was a case of final checking and having the option to vary the sizes, print finishes and quantities of the photographs to be printed, before finalising the order and paying for them.

One valuable service they provide is to update you via email about the status of your prints.

There are three stages:

1. Order Received
2. Responsibility is taken for the printing of the photographs
3. Prints are despatched

Immediately after paying for the prints I received the first email:

The following day I received another email, stating that the photographs had reached to second stage:

Later that same day, I received the last email:

Features like this are very important to people and businesses as it keeps them up to date with the progress of their order, and on each email there was a brief summary of the order, which is handy if you have more than one order being printed at one time.

The company has the ICC (International Colour Consortium) profile for their printer, matched to the actual paper used available on their website for complete colour management control.

The prints are due for delivery tomorrow.
