There is silver on the rollers in
the dev rack. |
By mounting a filter 10u or a double
filter 1u and 25u with an extra pump the silver content will build up
slower
A typical reason to silver on the rollers in dev is that a little fix has entered the dev tank. |
|
My film comes out wet from the dryer | There can be more reasons. You should check that the dryer
tempeture is set up correct and that both the upper and lower heating element
is on.
Ensure that the silver content in the fixer does not exceed 5 mg/L. If it does the fixer replenish rate could be set too low. You may also seee bulletin No 16 Mending of bad graphic quality of developed film |
