Charley,

And then there are the pizza wheel tracks...  Try this and see what you
think.  I printed with MIS pig ink on cheapo Epson photo then waxed it with
ordinary paste wax. A few coats after the ink is real dry. It looked kind of
silver printish. I think it is worth further experiments. The trick is to
wipe it on so you don't get lap marks. I have no idea why anyone would want
an ink jet to look like a silver print :-)
