    Low bath capacity of D & F and low amount of replenishment rate will not allow you to process roll of film with a stable optical density 4D because of fast exausting of chemicals

    Vlad:

    I believe this is the dry thermo-diffusion transfer device - no chemicals.

    On the earlier models, there were PostScript drivers available - typically native language is Dicom.
    I suspect the Dmax on this genre device is around 3. It's basically a continuous tone device.
