Ever felt like reprinting one of the classic images from the 30s?

The Library of Congress has 1000s of images available free in
'archival' TIFFS (10-50MB or more) - including such classics as
Dorothea Lange's Migrant Mothers and Walker Evans shots

I produced some beautiful digital reprints on my R2400.

I'll confess I've always wanted to print one of these images in the
darkroom - might try doing a contact neg onto transparency.  But I
don't  think the R2400 can do this, can it?

Regards
Gareth
