Doc Henry Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share #44521 Posted December 27, 2017 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) This is right. There are a variety of options. 1 - DeVere makes an enlarger that has a facility to print from digital files onto silver paper. In place of a film negative they have an electronic device that creates an transparent image. I have never seen one, but DeVere is a good name, so... 2. There are a number of labs that will take a digital file and make a silver print. There is Digital Silver Imaging (Boston I believe) and Ilford Lab Direct. I have tried them both, and I was very pleased and impressed. I think there are others. The down sides are that the DeVere is expensive, and the labs take some time (usually about 10-14 days from when I send the file) and some money (but nothing outrageous). The results were excellent. But I can do as well with my focomat 1c and Ilford Multigrade Classic paper. I have used Ilford Lab Direct 2-3 times when I wanted a print larger than I can conveniently make myself. I don't stock big paper, and I only have 2 big trays. And I want big prints only every 2-3 years for something special (e.g. a request for something big from a friend or family member). Michael , one box of Ilford Mutigrade paper in format 12,7x17,8 cms (100 sheets) costs 34 Euros so one photo is around 3.4 cents. The second advantage is silver paper impressed by the light of enlarger , not deposit ink on paper like in digital printer and in addition you need your computer and inkjetprinter , the great difference... and the pleasure to work in darkroom , not in front of his computer You can also choose one part of your negative and crop a little like for portrait ....
