A few years ago I did some custom driver work (with Gutenprint) that 
adapted some high-end prosumer inkjets to use custom all-gray ink sets; 
the goal was to create very high-quality printed x-rays, both on paper 
and transparent film that could be used in a traditional medical 
lightbox.

So this white-on-black stuff is out there, but one has to know where to 
look, and you'll end up paying $$$ (vs standard inks/toners/papers) for 
the privilege of being different.
