George,
Neither could I until I bought the Epson 2200 with ultrachrome inks ($650)
and the Epson C84 with durabrite inks ($30). The Epson model I think is now
a C86, using the same inks I hope. They are incredibly dense, those two
inks, both with black ink only negs and colorized with no black ink negs.

This shows the C86 at $80-130. I bet you could search for coupon
discounts/rebates, too.
