Re: Color processing/printing with Jobo setup?

Jim,

I used a Jobo setup extensively in my college days, and if I was going to do
color at home, I would not use anything else. We had a couple of CPP12(I
think that's the model?) JoboLift machines, and they worked great. Only
problems we ever had was if the heating element was left on without any
water in the processor-burns out the element. The nice thing about the
system is its flexibility, you can get drums to do sheet film, many
different size prints, and it can be used for B&W or color. I will add that
I had really nice results doing B&W 4x5 film development in the Jobo as
well-very smooth, even development.

Hope this helps,

Dan
