I have the opportunity to purchase an old air force 8 x 10 contact printer that still seems to work.
Weren't those printers designed for silver chloride printing out papers? I believe all the toggle
switches on the front which dim the lights are for dodging. Does any one know if this is correct.?
Are bulbs still available? What kind of exposure times might one get on this type of printer. There is
a lot of 5 x 7 Azo (15 years old there as well. Can I assume it will still be good? Thanks for any
answers to these questions.
