Interesting process, don't entirely see the point but it's could be a fun experiment.

Silver based prints (c-type) are still popular for archival/fine art prints. Apparently some art galleries will only sell silver based prints, and several specialist printers make silver prints from TIFFs or JPEGs. I've only ever seen them use Fuji papers.

"C-Types are the ultimate professional photographic print available today and are the only option for continuous tone colour printing from a digital file or film original. They capture nuanced detail no other print process can deliver and boast superb archival longevity from their silver halide formula, whether the image is colour or black and white. As the image has been exposed into the photographic emulsion, C-Types deliver images with a depth to them missing from ink based prints."

As far as I am aware they use a 'digital' enlarger/projector to expose the paper and don't go through any Digital negative stage

In fleeting moments of nostalgia and fantasy, and given the problems of finding room for an enlarger, I've sometimes thought of scanning films to make 10x8 digital negatives, and then make contact prints, as explained in the video. Or even better PhotoGravure prints.

But the moments are always fleeting,
