Re: Print Clear Print on right side.

I have been using pictorico and have had no problem with negative
flaking when using the vacuum frame during pt/pd printing. I did find
out that using a One-Pass roller to clean a inkjet negative is a very
bad idea. The roller sticks to it like glue. It is actually pretty
amazing. I had to use a lot of force to separate the roller from the
negative.
