Digital BW, The Print

Many years ago I saw an exhibit in Baltimore called "Florida Condo." The 
photographer was clearly putting across the message of the deplorable 
way we as a culture treat the eldest in our society (at least at that 
time). Key to conveying this message was the grain of the images. 
Technically he used 35mm,  with under exposure and over development with 
concentrated HC110 to maximize the grain and retained the grain by 
printing on a high gloss finish paper with a condenser enlarger head. .

The exhibit was quite good. My question is how faitfully would inkjet 
printing display this grain - that was a key to the photographs?

Thanks
