Palladium Chloride Toner as Inkjet Ink

[Mustafa Umut Sarac]

Many photographers tone their prints with palladium. Palladium toner was 1 liter , it requires 0.25 grams of palladium chloride. We could make different strenght batches and than load in the cartridges 6 different tone. Than comes the software part.

I read at Mike Ware , the palladium trick is its permanance.

What do you think ? Is there a chance to succeed. It makes sense with me but I dont know you.

Sorry, not going to work. Read up on print toning formulas and regimens for gelatin silver, POP, salt, albumen, kallitype, vandyke, and others, and you will quickly see why. Better yet, try your hand at toning a print to get familiar with the chemistry and the process. Platinum and palladium toners can be reused and refreshed with small additions of the metal salt so this already helps offset the initial cost of materials.
