You can print color negs as BW on Kodak Panalure paper, but it's a pain
in the a**. It has to be done in total darkness without a safelight. And
the results are so-so. The best way to make BW out of color is on a
computer. You simply desaturate it, or you can do it channel by channel.
But you'll need grayscale ink sets to print it properly. Shoot BW. It's
very nice. It makes better BW pictures than any color film in the universe.
