Hello,
I am about to order paper (fiber ONLY) and solutions for contact printing. I found that I can get a good deal ($8 for 100 5'x7' sheets) on "MACO expo RN fiber" paper and was wondering wheter the Ilford chemistry (multigreade developer, rapid fixer, ilfostop) would be OK.
Could you comment on the MACO papers?
What about the FORTE papers? They are also a bit cheaper than Ilford but as far as I understand they are no longer produced.
To make it more clear - my original plan was to go with ilfor FB paper (normal or warmtoned) together with ilford chemistry.
I do plane to use filters later to vary the contrast.
Any caveats?
thanks
