Digital BW, The Print

i use an epson r220 for silver print. the only thing i had to do is put a 3 filter in the enlarger. the epson r220 does not lay enough ink to block the light. By adding the filter, i was able to find r=255 g=89 b=33 combination to block the light. i'd like to get a 2200 because you can tell the driver to lay more ink on paper.
a lot of people are doing palladium prints. the use uv lights instead of an enlarger light.

  Has anyone done this? I've heard that you can make decent 
  platinium/palladium prints, but that silver gelatin requires a 
  higher-quality negative, such as provided by an imagesetter or film 
  recorder.
