I have a sample of the Silkjet WP5, see
http://www.kimototech.com/Lit/Silkjet%20wp5-sc4-mc4.pdf
It is touted to be useful with both dye and pigment based inks. My only
test was with pigment based inks and it also will not fully accept pigments.
I'm about to try my dye based inks and will let you know.
BTW, using a clear spray for fixing the image on this film is much worse
than the results experience on Pictorico.
