> My results have been very inconsistent. I received a brand new UV printer last summer and it has a built-in vacuum  frame. I have kept the humidity at around 60% and my drop count on a sheet of 81/2 X 11 has been 12, 12, 1 ( palladium, ferric oxalate, and NA2) On a sheet of 11 X 14 I have used 24, 24, 2. I am coating with a Richeson brush and my time is about 6 minutes. I have never gotten a dmax greater then 1.30…….maybe a few times it has been a bit higher. My developer is Potassium Oxalate and then I was washing in Citric acid with EDTA added.
