8x10 contact printer

[tgtaylor]

I have one similar to the one Thom posted a link to above except that mine is a Premier. It woks great for proof sheets. For regular contact prints of 8x10 negatives for silver and alternative prints I use this: http://www.bostick-sullivan.com/cart...&cat=38&page=1

Pricey but well worth the cost.

The Crown Printer is a bit older http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/856/1006311t.jpg/

Bottom glass is opaque, light source located underneath, a heavy clear glass covers the negative paper combo, the top door is hinged - spring loaded with a latch to maintain pressure on the leaf springs - timer for the light source is located on the underside of the light box which contains 7 bulbs.

There must be a few hundred of these Fatifs gathering dust somewhere. The interesting part is the glass tray under the negative for dodging tissues and whatnot. Mine is masked for an 8x10 negative with an inch margin.
