Digital BW, The Print

Ken,

I also use the 2200 (with photo black ink) and the Pictorico white film
material to make digital negatives.
As I said before, the results are pretty amazing!

The process I use is not all that different than what Dan Burkholder has
written about in the inkjet companion to his book that you mentioned in your
post and I would strongly recommend getting it for anyone who wants to try
this. It only costs $15.00 to download and is well worth the money! It's a
hell of a lot cheeper than buying a $490.00 RIP.

Best Regards,

David R. Spielman

  I just got in the inkjet digital neg CD from Dan Burkholder, a supplement
to
  his excellent book.  I have used his technique in the past to make pt/pd
  prints (they are forgiving due to the paper being textured), but according
  to Dan his workflow will give excellent results using Pictorico white film
  and silver paper.  He says the 2200 is the best yet for digital negs, so
one
  of these days I'll give it a try. Hard to believe it would be as
satisfying
  as an enlarged in-camera neg, but who knows until you try. Right now I'm
  pretty happy with the 2200 and cotton paper, though it appears the IP rip
is
  needed for b&w or toned b&w.  Oh well, $495 isn't that much compared to
the
  cost of photo trips I never seem to be able to take...
