[Frameworks] B & W on colour stock

Hi Shumona,

Getting b/w images on color stock is definitely possible. Usually you
need to have quite "unbalanced" R G B values in order to obtain this
result and after the answer print you need one/more correction prints.
You might need slightly different color corrections for shots that
vary in densities/contrast. B/w images on color stock will never be
totally neutral as if they were printed on b/w stock, but you can get
pretty good results, and often only the trained eyes of a grader would
spot the difference. Good luck with your print!

Best,
Daniela Currò
