Digital BW, The Print

The only ferrotype I know is the alt. process one (also named tintype).
If there's another ferrotype process please explain; I would like to
learn about it. BTW, many alt. process artists use digital files
nowadays (by the means of using (a) inkjet / (b)imagesetter negatives on
(a)transparency media / (b)lith film).
