I have not been making negatives for platinum but I have been doing inkjet
negatives for silver and I have to say they are better than I had imagined.
I started out several years ago with an epson 1200 hoping to make negatives
that I could print with and was terribly disappointed. Things have improved
considerably and the negs I am making with my 1280 are wonderful.
It is very much a tuned process. Since we are trying to make the best
possible prints it only makes sense that you would want to tune your negs to
the printing medium. I use a spectorphotometer to measure the densities in
the final prints and this makes it fairly easy to tune the negs.

Subject: [Digital BW] RE: Anyone using digital negatives to make Platinum
prints?
I have begun investigating making digital negs.
I am taking a palladium printing class in Europe this summer and want to
take some enlarged negatives with me. I have no large format negatives and
hope to enlarge some of my 35mm negs to take with me.
However, from what I have read so far it doesn't appear to be as simple as
just "making negatives". It seems like it is all a coupled process -- that
the negatives need to be "tuned" to the printing process.
At this point, I have no idea what this process is going to be.
Also, I have an Epson R2400 printer and have yet to find any info on how to
use this printer to print on the Pictorico film material.
Obviously I have a lot to learn.
Dave.
