Frequently Asked Questions

Yes.

Because the image is fused into a coated 3 mm aluminium panel, Printseekers describes metal prints as moisture-resistant.

That makes them a more practical wall-art option for rooms where paper may be more vulnerable to humidity, although they should still be treated as indoor decorative prints unless a specific outdoor rating is provided.

Metal prints work especially well for photography, high-contrast artwork, digital illustrations and designs with strong colour.

Printseekers specifically positions the surface around crisp detail and vivid colour, so artwork that benefits from sharp edges and strong contrast usually makes the most of the material.

Metal prints use dye-sublimation, where the image is infused into a coated aluminium surface rather than printed onto paper or fabric.

Combined with Printseekers’ semi-gloss finish, this tends to produce stronger contrast and more vivid-looking colours than matte paper or textured canvas.

‍

Yes.

A design uploaded for one wall proportion may need cropping or repositioning when used on a wall with a different aspect ratio.

Important subjects, text, and focal points should therefore be kept away from the extreme edges of the artwork.

‍

‍

‍

Yes, but only if the aspect ratio matches. Changing from one proportion to another can crop parts of the artwork, so each size should be checked individually before publishing.

Keeping important elements away from the edges also gives you more flexibility across multiple canvas sizes.

Often, yes. If the original image does not leave enough room for the canvas wrap, extending the background helps preserve the original composition without stretching or cropping important elements.

This is especially useful for photography and artwork with subjects near the edges.

Yes, but canvas texture affects extremely fine detail more than smooth poster paper.

Bold typography, photography, illustrations and artwork with clear contrast reproduce well, while very thin lines, tiny lettering and highly intricate details may appear slightly softer once printed onto the woven canvas surface.

For artwork where extremely fine detail is essential, keep important elements comfortably sized rather than designing at the limit of screen resolution.

‍

For large canvas prints, 150 DPI at the final print size is generally a strong target, while smaller artwork viewed up close benefits from higher resolution.

Canvas is more forgiving than smooth photo paper because its woven texture naturally softens extremely fine pixel-level detail.

Printseekers canvas sizes go up to 200 × 100 cm for stretched and gallery canvas, and up to 240 × 120 cm for rolled canvas, so using the highest-resolution source file available becomes increasingly important at the largest sizes.

Printseekers framed canvases use Epson UltraChrome GS3 eco-solvent inks, a pine inner frame and either cotton or polyester canvas. They are also PVC-free and B1 fire-rated.

For normal indoor use, the main care requirement is simply to remove dust with a soft, dry cloth and avoid excessive moisture or physical damage to the canvas surface.

Yes. Printseekers framed canvas is available up to 150 × 100 cm / 60 × 40 in, making it suitable for large statement pieces as well as smaller artwork.

Larger formats benefit especially from the floating frame because it gives the canvas a finished presentation without adding glass or a heavy front panel.

The artwork is first stretched over a 19 mm pine stretcher frame, which sits inside the decorative floating frame.

Because the canvas edges remain visible inside the floating frame, the way you prepare the edge area of your artwork can affect the final appearance.

For designs with important details close to the edge, it is best to keep key elements safely inside the main printable area.

Choose cotton canvas if you want a heavier, more traditional fine-art texture, and polyester if you prefer a lighter and more economical option.

Printseekers uses 300 g/m² canvas made from 99% cotton and 1% polyester, or 220 g/m² 100% polyester; both are printed using Epson UltraChrome GS3 inks.

A floating frame leaves a small visible gap between the stretched canvas and the outer frame, creating the effect that the artwork is suspended inside it.

This gives the piece a more gallery-style finish without covering the edges of the canvas.

Printseekers framed canvases use this floating-frame construction across the range.

Each framed poster is wrapped in multiple layers of bubble wrap, covered with protective cardboard and placed inside a durable cardboard box. Because framed products need additional protection, framed posters are shipped separately rather than packed together with other framed items.

Yes. Printseekers framed posters are assembled before shipping and include a sawtooth hanger, so the customer receives a finished product that can be hung without separately sourcing a frame.

Printseekers framed posters are available from 15 × 15 cm up to 150 × 100 cm (6 × 6″ to 60 × 40″), depending on the frame style. The range includes square, portrait and landscape formats, including large statement-size prints.

Framed posters are printed on 230 gsm Epson Enhanced Matte paper using an Epson SureColor SC-P9500 12-colour printer and water-based Epson Fine Art pigment inks. This combination is designed for detailed reproduction, smooth colour transitions and long-lasting colour.

Printseekers framed posters use plexiglass instead of traditional glass. Plexiglass is lighter and more resistant to breaking during shipping while still protecting the artwork. This makes it especially practical for large framed prints and international delivery.

Giclée is a high-quality inkjet method used for fine art reproductions. Printseekers prints every poster on an Epson SureColor SC-P9500 with a 12-colour inkset and Epson Fine Art water-based pigment ink. The 12-colour inkset helps reproduce smooth gradients and fine detail.

Gsm means grams per square metre, a measure of paper weight. Higher gsm means a thicker, sturdier sheet.

Printseekers poster papers run from 189gsm (Standard Paper Matte) through 190gsm (Photo Paper Matte), 230gsm (Advanced Paper Matte), and 240gsm (Photo Paper Glossy) up to 310gsm (Fine Art Paper Matte).

At 189gsm it is the lightest poster paper Printseekers offers, and it suits everyday designs. For large premium pieces, the heavier Advanced Paper Matte (230gsm) or Fine Art Paper Matte (310gsm) gives a more substantial feel.

Posters ship rolled in protective packaging: a poster tube, a triangle cardboard tube, or a cardboard envelope. Standard delivery takes 2 to 7 business days, economy 5 to 10, and express 1 to 2, via FedEx, UPS, DHL, or DPD. Not every option is available for every destination. Rolled posters can hold a slight curl, which usually flattens after a day under weight or once framed.

Upload the highest-resolution file you have. A common guideline is 150 to 300 DPI at final print size. A 50×70 cm poster at 150 DPI needs about 2,953×4,134 pixels, and at 300 DPI about 5,906×8,268 pixels. Larger posters are viewed from farther away, so they can sit near the lower end.

Matte paper has a non-reflective surface that suits bright rooms and illustration-led designs.

Glossy photo paper gives punchier contrast for photography but shows glare and fingerprints more easily.

Fine Art Paper Matte is a premium stock aimed at art prints.

Printseekers offers photo paper in both matte and glossy, plus a fine art matte.

‍

Printseekers offers 16 frame finishes: black, white, pure gold, and wood tones (natural, dark, light, and premium black, dark, and light wood), plus premium grey, retro black, white and gold, vintage silver, gold and bronze, and modern gold. Each pairs with a white mat.

Printseekers passepartouts come in five sizes, from 30×40 cm to 60×120 cm (12×16" to 24×47").

Printseekers uses Epson Enhanced matte paper at 230gsm with pigment ink, an archival fine-art print for rich colour that holds up for years.

Mats work best for photography, drawings, botanicals, and quiet fine art, and are less suited to bold, full-bleed graphic posters that look strongest edge to edge. Choose framed posters without a mat for high-impact designs.

Yes, it arrives ready to hang. It ships in protective packaging via FedEx, UPS, DHL, or DPD, with standard (2 to 7 business days), economy, and express options depending on destination.

Yes. When possible, we combine rolled posters into one tube, and the extra shipping cost for each additional poster is smaller. Framed posters can't be packed together for safety reasons.

Posters are usually produced in 2–5 business days. Standard delivery then takes 2–7 business days. They ship rolled, wrapped in tissue and packed in a tube, so they arrive flat and undamaged.

From 15×15 cm up to 200×100 cm (6×6" to 80×40"), in standard or custom sizes. That covers everything from small prints to large statement pieces.

Upload a JPG or PNG at 300 DPI in sRGB, sized to your chosen poster size. A high-resolution file means sharper detail and richer colour.

Standard (189gsm) is the best-value choice for everyday prints.

‍

Advanced (230gsm) is a smooth, glare-free archival matte with true-to-screen colour.

‍

Fine Art (310gsm) has a soft, lightly textured surface for art prints, illustration and photography.

‍

Photo paper is also available in matte and glossy. Not sure? Order a sample and compare them by hand.

Absolutely — and we recommend it. You can order material samples first, and for larger projects we print a proof for you to sign off on before anything goes into full production. The final run is color-matched to your approved sample, so what arrives on-site matches exactly what you agreed to. Repeat orders are matched to the same specs, which stay on file.

We produce peel-and-stick wallpaper (vinyl and polyester), traditional non-woven wallpaper, prepasted wallpaper, and Type II commercial vinyl — a heavy-duty, contract-grade option made for high-traffic spaces like hotel corridors and lobbies. All types are printed in-house to your exact wall dimensions, whether it's a repeat pattern or a wall-sized custom mural. Not sure which fits your project? Request a sample kit and compare them by hand.

Yes — bulk production is what our commercial service is built for. We can produce the same design across 10 or 1,000 rooms with consistent color and finish, and split delivery across multiple addresses in one order. Every enterprise project gets a dedicated project manager who coordinates production, timelines, and shipping to each location.

Yes — ask your personal manager about a sample. For larger planned orders, we'll usually find a way to get one in your hands before you commit.

No minimums — order a single piece or thousands. For larger orders, pricing is negotiated with your personal manager, and bulk orders get special pricing.

We print on blanks from trusted apparel brands like Stanley/Stella — their tees are 100% organic cotton, available in sizes XS–3XL and 50+ colors — plus Malfini, AWDis, and Sol's. Hoodies are a sturdy 280 gsm cotton-polyester blend.

Three, depending on your design: DTG (direct-to-garment) for bold detailed prints, DTF (direct-to-film) for extra vibrant colors and flexible placement, and embroidery for a premium stitched look — great for logos.

Prints are produced on Epson Enhanced matte paper 230g/m² using Epson Fine Art pigment ink and Giclée printing. This ensures rich, accurate colours with archive-grade longevity - meaning the print won't fade or degrade over time.

Every passepartout arrives fully assembled - print, mat, and frame - and is wrapped in multiple layers of bubble wrap, covered in a protective cardboard sheet, and packed in a durable cardboard box. Ready to hang straight out of the box with a sawtooth hanger included.

We offer a range of frame finishes including black, white, gold, retro gold, modern gold, vintage gold, bronze, vintage bronze, vintage silver, retro black, retro white, and wood. Each finish is paired with the same white passepartout mat.

Passepartouts are available in five sizes: 30×40 cm, 50×70 cm, 60×90 cm, 70×100 cm, and 60×120 cm. Each size comes with a proportionally wider mat so the presentation always looks balanced.

A passepartout is a wide white mat that sits between the print and the frame. It creates a border of negative space around the artwork - the same presentation method used in galleries and museums. On our products, the mat width ranges from 4 cm on the smallest size up to 7 cm on the largest.
