Thread: 80" Durst Lambda printing

  1. #1

    80" Durst Lambda printing

    Printing analog is really difficult. I have the space enlarger paper and chemicals however I am worries that I wont be able to make very many prints with my paper. What studios are creating C-Prints over 30". There are a good deal of places that have the 30" printer but my paper is 58"

    Or just leave it here so others who may have the same question in the future can refer to the information that was shared. Seriously, one of the most useful resources concerning photography I find to be old forum posts of people who ran into the same issues I did!

    The widest Ilford photopaper rolls today are 56" wide, in sheets largest is 40", IIRC , this may limit the practical size if no other choices are available... but 56"x80" would be possible, of course...

    I think the Ilford machine's capacity is 60" - can't remember if this is for coating or finished product. 72" is the biggest Kodak roll, Bayeaux & the Artful Dodgers in London will optically print on it up to 72x100-ish.
