as far as using the jobo for Pt/Pd printing, the problem I forsee is that
of the PT/Pd coming off the print while in the developer (happens with
some paper/developer combinations). The rotary action of the processor
would embed the metal particles in the paper fibers degrading the whites
and clean borders. This is very difficult to remove, and the solution I
use when working with these materials is stagnant development (no
agitation) after which a stream of water on the areas that the particles
have adhered to will wash them off, because they haven't been driven into
the paper by agitation.
