Sorry, no. I'm currently printing on Epson C80 and 820. Nothing
bigger than about 6 x 9 image size. I'm looking into it though
for making large prints for collectors.
I've always found the term "giclee" somewhat amusing. After all,
it's a French word that simply means "spray" - exactly what
inkjet printers do. Higher quality to be sure than ordinary
inkjet (the examples I've seen anyway) but I think the use of
that word is primarily intended to obscure the fact that these
are digital prints. And perhaps to lend a tone of mystery and
class. Kind of reminds me of the term "Rembrandt" lighting.
