How is the blower used? I'm setting up a cb7 enlarger (pictured) for the first time and it comes with an external box vacuum which pulls air through the head, (which apparently has two lamps).
Do you leave the blower on all the time while printing?
Do you turn it on only when the lamp is used?
I have tried plugging it into the aux outlets on the enlarger base, and on the moving part of the enlarger and those seem to keep the fan on all the time when the enlarger power switch is activated. I've figured out the other stuff I need to know about the enlarger; just never used one big enough to utilize a cooling system.
