Yes, I've done it all ways: printing with a slide, with a negative, with
sabattiering it, with not sabattiering it, with doing it before fixing, with
doing it after fixing, with using weak dektol, strong dektol, thiocarbamide
for redeveloping, with warmtone paper, cold tone paper, fiber, RC, different
chems, different peroxides, different formulae, rubbing, not rubbing,
hardened paper, not hardened paper, old prints, fresh prints, copper
sulfate, copper chloride, hot water rub, room temp water rub, heating the
print in a dry mount press, not heating the print, doing all under room
light, doing all under safelight.....you get the picture.
