First time I'm working this process. I'm gonna rough in all my pencils digitally, then do the inking traditionally over top my monster lite-box. I'm going to knock out the rest of the pencils (6 more pages) before I move on to ink.

If you can, you should get a large format printer and just print out the pages in non-photo blue and ink over those. I got a large format print for around $300. Staring into a lightbox for hours is so not fun.
I've had trouble with the ink sitting on top of the toner in the past. What kind of printer do you use, and what kind of ink? If I can find a way that the ink won't bead up and the blue line show through, I would prefer going that direction.

The ink will sit on the printer ink in rare occasions... but very rare, in my case.I think it depends on how dark the blue is that you print out. I don't print the pencils very dark so I don't have much problem with the ink beading. I print on standard 2 ply Bristol (smooth finish).
It's not a printer that prints colour very well, but for a large format printer for just doing blue pages, it's just fine.
