What is an artist's print?
"The availability of commercial, so-called, "limited edition" prints from various sources has introduced some confusion over the definition of an artists' print.
(The artist) "crafts their own woodcuts/collagraphs/screenprints/etchings by hand and inks them and prints them theirself on hand operated machinery, or by burnishing. Editions can be from 1 to 100 (or more). The number in the bottom left hand corner of a print (see above) indicates its number in the edition (first or top number) and the edition size (second or bottom number). So 14/30 would be the fourteenth print in an edition of thirty.
A genuine artist's print may be described as follows, "A mechanically reproduced image which has not previously existed independently of the printing process and in whose production the artist has directly participated" (Alexander Adams, Printmaking Today Vol 13, Number 2, Summer 2004)."

In other words - each print is a unique image in its own right - not just a reproduction of a painting. Each image is inked separately, so each image is different and in subtle or obvious ways.
