Nick,

I have just started down that road myself, and the guy who does my
silver printing told me that he now has that capability to do so. He
can print RC, fiber, or platinum. For my work, I do 8x10 black and
white Polaroid transfers; scan them, have negs made and then print them
to fiber in editions of 10. I use both pinhole and lens cameras for
this technique.

The company is called RichPrints owned by Rich Silha. He is a very
pleasant man to do business with and a pleasure to talk to. His number
is 612-338-7172 and he is located in Minneapolis. Hope this helps.
