I'm not quite sure if this is what you're talking about, but...
If you use only one plate, there is not an actual "rosette" pattern, but
parallel lines of dots. I read on this list, a few days ago, a message where
was said that a 405 Lpi (or something around) film plate could be used as a
negative to make contact prints on silver paper (or any other form of
contact printing), because the size of the dots would be almost
imperceptible (well, this is what I undertood).
Hope this helps,
