I understand those who don't enjoy the banter/cacophony of the educational
dilemma but the track of it all did interest me . . obviously, since I tried
to write back my thoughts. But, though things get 'off track' on this list
now and then, we don't have to read it all. It is one of the reasons I so
enjoy this list.

It's not necessary to make 1/2-tone negs when you can enlarge directly to
lith film? One does not normally require the 1/2-tone dot. A continuous tone
negative suffices.
The printers would be the very latest Epsons, HP or Canon and that'd depend
upon the size you wish.
If one is going to create digital files rather than straight imagery, these
would be perfect choices. The film I'd recommend would be the Pictorico but
that can become quite costly Vs making an 'enlargement' on lith film.
