About us 

myphotocenter.com powered by Advance PhotoLabs is your premier provider of high-end digital imaging services. We specialize in preparing graphics for a wide variety of print and display applications.

The premier photographic digital imaging device located at our Ardsley production facility is the CSI (now OCE) LightJet 5000, which uses a 50" roll of photographic paper (or Duratrans film for backlighting) and makes prints up to 48" x 96". The LightJet uses technology gained from satellite imaging systems to enhance sharpness. In fact, much of NASA's satellite imaging equipment was made by CSI. Prints imaged on the LightJet are sharper than those imaged on similar devices, like the Lambda and Kodak Pegasus laser-printers, and are also sharper than dye sublimation and inkjet prints.

The LightJet 5000 is essentially a giant film recorder and images at over 4,000 lines per inch in 36-bit color space (equivalent to 68 billion colors). It has an amazing capacity to enlarge when imaging - a quality scan file which has been saved at 300 dpi at 16" x 20", for instance, can be enlarged to 32" x 40" without loosing any clarity at all. With a maximum imaging area of 48" x 96" you can make some very large photographs, up to mural size, and the prints are absolutely stunning! With LightJet laser imaging the results are always consistent in both color and density and there is no fall-off of exposure to the corners as in traditional enlarging. Truly the 21st Century enlarger, the LightJet 5000 makes photographic prints that are sharper than traditionally made photographs. Its sophisticated ability to sharpen while imaging allows you to work at lower resolutions (150 - 200 dpi) and still get the sharpest results so you can make larger photographs with the same scans.
