I'm trying to understand the directions for this developer. It says to develop sheets one at a time in open trays, and that the capacity of the working solution is 125 sheets of 4x5 for 51 liters of working solution, but that the working solution should be used within 3 minutes of mixing to obtain consistent results. My question is, how is this possible if the time for, say FP4 is 7 minutes, would I need to remix solution for each sheet? If so, how is this economical? I'm mainly concerned with the oxidation of WD2D+ in the trays.
Anyone out there able to offer some guidance? I can develop multiple sheets at a time, but I'm trying to get the most out of this developer per the instructions until I get the hang of it.
