Dear Peter,

I was mentioning "the curve for the enlarged negative" - I have no
problems in printing positive images on paper using quadtone inks
(thanks to Jeff Randall - the maker of RGB partitioned workflow for MIS
FS inks. As the MIS FS inkset and Cone inkset dilutions match, the
workflow works perfectly for Cone inks too - I'm waiting for the new
profiles with great enthusiasm BTW).

What curve did you use to make the negative? Or did you just reversed
the image and printed to the transparency?

Again, what can people say on making enlarged negatives on Pictorico OHP
using any of the quadtone pigment inksets (especially Piezotones)? Is
there any enlarged negative maker using the combination mentioned in the
subject line?

Regards,
Loris.
