    Washing Fiber Paper in ATL-2500

    I would like to start using Fiber Paper in my Jobo Alt-2500 processor. When I go to wash the print can I have the processor wash it or do I need to use a print washer. A lot of Fiber papers have long wash times, do I use the same wash time as a print washer.
    Thanks, Jacob

    Jobo recommends against processing fiber based paper in their system. It tends to form around the ribs in the drums. I've tried it and it does come out a little weird. Not sure I saw any permanent ill effects but tray processing seems better for fiber. Since fiber needs a long wash time to be effective, I wouldn't do it the jobo drums.
