The objective is to make a darkroom B&W print from a digital capture.
Then you need to make a negative.
I recall reading something about making B&W inkjet negatives in one of the
photo magazines several years ago, I think this would be the way to go.
Be aware that if you use only the black ink for making the negative you will
most likely get a print more reminiscent of a lith film print, and if you
use the colour ink as well, the results will be rather unpredictable, since
B&W paper isn't pan sensitive..
If you want something that looks like a traditional B& white print, you will
probably have to produce several negatives of varying density and print them
sequentially using a pin registering contact print easel.
