Okay, since this has come up...

For those of you using the Epson C 84 to produce NEGATIVES, can you
elaborate on your methods? Making negatives on inkjet printers is a new
area for me (I'm not sure that my now-aged Epson Photo Stylus 750 is up
to the task...but if I'm wrong, someone PLEASE tell and I'll hang on to
it!)...I'm interested in creating negatives for P.O.P. most immediately
and ultimately for Plat/Pall printing. I'm okay with the size
constraints of these printers.

What inks are working best with which film combinations (I have a small
stash of Pictorico that I've been saving so i could start doing this) ?
