Just got a box of 100 sheets of Fuji Crystal Archive paper. That is a lot of paper for my hobbyist use, and may last me a year. I opened the box but not the sleeve in the darkroom to check for paperwork and found none, then put it in my refrigerator for storage. Downloaded the instructions and read that the paper needs to come to room temperature to prevent condensation. I expected this, but now how do I keep the paper until I am able to use it all.
1. Take out the whole box, let it warm up and then place it all in the paper safe and then hope I can use it all before it starts going bad?
2. Take out the number of sheets I expect to use in the session and put them in the paper safe to warm up, leave the rest in the box and return it to the refrigerator?
3. Take out the whole box to warm up. Leave them in the box and bag, taking out each sheet as I need it. After the session return the unused paper to the refrigerator until next time?
I suspect the answer is #1, but I am hoping one of the other methods will work.
