Great for silver gelatin contact prints

By Ted
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2022-02-01

I have a conventional heavy duty hinged back contact print frame from years ago. It is fine for POP alternative processes where it may be necessary to periodically inspect the print during UV exposure, (You can open half the hinged back for inspection without danger of moving the negative.) But for conventional contact printing on silver gelatin (or a DOP type UV process), this lightweight contact print easel is a pleasure to use.

question

Is the glass UV coated? (PTP623 Paterson Proof Printer)
Asked by: Anonymous
The manufacturer has not provided this level of information on the specific coatings used in making the glass. It would be recommended that you contact the manufacturer to find out how they've designed it.

question

Could this be used for contact printing 120 negatives on 9.44 X 12 photo paper? What are the dimensions of the clear part of the glass, and of the foam backing? Thanks.
Asked by: David J.
The foam backer dimensions are 9.5 x 11.25 which is the critical dimension as it holds the negatives and paper tight to the glass. The glass dimension is 10.25 x 12.125 . I would suggest trimming your paper to the foam dimension to ensure proper contact.
