Matt photo prints

hoftwi · 17 Jan 2016

hi all, I need to print about 40-50 photos in matt,not lustre with reasonable price. Peak image is good but it's expensive. May you recommend me some other company I can try? thanks

DS Colour labs Manchester. Upload files by mid-day and you'll get them back next day as along as they're standard sizes. Great quality and low prices too.

I don't think DS do Matt paper. Try Photobox, I'm pretty sure they do.

Thanks guys for the replies. But I used DS colour lads in the end as I ran out of time for my project, so had to print them in lustre.

Were you pleased with the quality of the prints and do you recommend them?

DSCL have been doing matt paper for at least a couple of years. You need to go through the Fine Art Prints section of the website rather than the regular digital printing section.

I did print quite a few times in DS Colour before, their service is spot-on and the quality is good. though I am not pro, so I can't give more detail of the quality. they all look good to me.

I am not a pro, so quite happy to try and see. Thanks for your quick reply.

I have looked into Peak Image and know they have got excellent review but their prices are bit more expensive for me so I went for DS Colour. Would like to know whether there would be much different.
