Hello Marek,

Are there any benefits/differences for the citrate developer vs. traditional
potassium oxalate for palladium printing?

Sorry to take so long to answer your question (assuming it was directed to
me vs the general list) I receive the list posting in daily digest format so
I'm not too interactive, but the primary difference amongst different
developers is the final color palladium prints will have. Generally speaking
warm potassium oxalate creates much warmer toned prints than sodium citrate
and ammonium citrate shift to a warm-neutral tone. But the type of palladium
salt and ferric oxalate used also affects the color too.

Did that help?
