Potential ex-darkroom convert

2003-10-17 by Eric Maquiling

I've moved a couple of times this year and it looks like my darkroom
will be in boxes for a while. I've been on lurking mode listening and
learning as much as I can.  I've been generating some quickie
'beginner's guide' to a person with nada, nothing, except of course a
computer and cameras :)

This is what I have to get so far, and my question is, anyone else can
contribute?  I mostly want to do B&W, 11X14 as biggest (or the next
size up), may try doing digital negs for alt processes:

1280 printer (looks cost effective)
I have Win2K, old, but works
Piezo inks
some type of software to calibrate my monitor?
profiles?
paper
photoshop for dummies

Anyone have anything to add to the list?

I wish there was some type of "happy meal" someone can offer,
supersize, that comes with everything I need.

Thanks
