The cyan filter will really do nothing at all.  ST8 is orthochromatic, so
it's already biased strongly toward the blue.  

The problem with printing color materials to an ortho print stock (aside from
the weird color rendition that you get in the print) is that the yellow 
mask on the negative means you have to increase the exposure a lot.

If you look at the datasheet for ST8, it has a .5 density for 0 log exposure,
a density of 3 for 1 log exposure.  So you're wanting to keep exposure within
that range.

If you look at the datasheet for PF2, to get a .5 density you need a 2 log
exposure, and to get a density of 3 you need a 3 log exposure.  So you need
to expose the film about 100 times more strongly than you do ST8.

Run the printer 100 times slower or open the iris 7 stops.
