Not yet... but having just got a colour enlarger it's something I might try in the future, of course, I'd have to actually start shooting some colour for that....

I still think about it then I think pc, printer ah! well and the ep2 chemicals are probably gone off by now, all my paper is ep2 aswell.I reckon colour printing is for people without alive so it should suit me down to the ground.

I'm still doing it! IN fact, I did some prints about an hour ago of my kids'Nativity Plays at school taken on some Solaris 800 ASA(Ferrania) I was trying out. Came out smashing! I use an LPL C7700 enlarger,various lenses for up to 6x9, and NOVA slot processors 16x12"; get prints out in 2 minutes with RA4 chemistry. I use Champion developer, CpAc Bleach- fix and make up my own Stop Bath from Sodium Sulphite and Acetic Acid.Paper is very much cheaper than the 'digital'paper! I get it from PhotoMart Walthamstow.

I thought you could use the same paper that is used in a lightjet, no?

Count me in. I am so dissapointed with the colour inkjet prints loosing their full range of colours in a very short time that when I reopened my B&W darkroom I went for RA4 at the same time. Chemicals are readily available from NOVA as is Fuji and Kodak RA4 paper. Yeah a great hobby once you have standardised and got a base for correct colour balance.

I don't personally do color enlarging, but I do have some of my color work enlarged by a local lab.
