Thanks. HP sure can get a big name guy when they want to and Erwitt 
is the man.  Great that they did not use some celeb photo hack like 
Annie L.....z.

Subject: [HPDesignJet_Printers] new HP Digital Negatives application
 
For anyone who's missed this, should be right up some of your alleys...

(DISCLAIMER: I consult for HP, and I helped bring some of the parties 
together to make this project happen. Please don't ask me about new HP products 
or HP support issues:)

HP recently announced the "Large Format Photo Negatives" application for 
printing LF digital negatives and then using that neg for Alt Process 
(UV-based only) traditional (hand-made) prints. Basically, it's a free paper 
preset 
download for Z3200 that defines the ink separation into mostly Green and 
some Black inks (only those two). It began as a "skunk work" in HP labs in 
Barcelona, and is now available to anyone (with a Z3200). 

The first photographer to use it is Elliott Erwitt (!) of Magnum Photos, in 
conjunction with printmakers Gabe Greenberg (digital neg) and Arkady Lvov 
(platinum), all in NYC. I made a little step-by-step video about them and the 
process here:

And here's more info about it:

This process was physically introduced at Arles festival in France, and the 
first North American demo of it (both neg and Erwitt prints) will be at 
PPE/NYC in October. If you make it to PPE, be sure to see the samples in the HP 
booth. The Erwitt prints are gorgeous.

P.S. There is a workaround for the Z3100, and I'm asking the inventor of 
the application in Barcelona to clarify. If there is any interest or response 
here, I'll try to encourage him to come on and explain.
