Digital colour coupler

Digital colour coupler prints, also known as chromogenic prints, are similar to standard C-type prints. In this process, silver salts in the photographic paper ‘couple’ with colored dyes during development, rather than being replaced by them. The resulting images are comparable to standard C-type prints but have the advantage of utilizing the highly light-sensitive silver salts found in silver gelatin prints. This allows for the creation of high-resolution color images, as opposed to black and white ones, providing excellent detail and color accuracy.
