PrintLab Roller-Transport Print Processors

PrintLab 3504

Product Line Summary:

Manufactured by JOBO, these intelligently-designed processors are suitable for up to 13"-width RA-4 and black and white prints. As with any roller-transport machine, the racks are the key to even, smooth, trouble-free printing. The design of the PrintLab ensures the paper is gently guided through the racks providing flawless processing.

PrintLabs 3503R and 3504 come pre-programmed for all RC-based B/W graded and variable contrast, and RA-4 papers. The rack design and variable temperature and transport speed controls assure you of high-quality processing.

Key Features

Extremely consistent
All PrintLabs develop prints evenly and consistently. PrintLabs 3503R and 3504 take this consistency one step further with automatic replenishment. These PrintLabs use five infrared sensors to measure the surface area of the print to be developed, then calculate and pump the correct amount of replenisher chemical to the appropriate bath. (The replenishment chemicals are drawn from collapsible 5-Liter air-tight containers.)

Easy on the environment
In addition to appropriate chemical replenishment, PrintLabs 3503R and 3504 use microprocessor-control to calculate the correct amount of wash water (based on the surface area of paper developed). Model 3503 automatically stops the wash water when the processor goes into standby mode.

Ready when you are
After turning on your processor, you're ready to start developing in minutes. With PrintLab models 3503R and 3504, each bath is independently heated to its specific temperature and controlled by an independent thermostat which allows for individual programming of each chemical bath. (There is one temperature control in models 3503 and 3502.)

Multiple small prints
Due to the unusual 13" (35cm) processing width, all PrintLab processors include the special ability to develop up to three 4x6" (10x15cm) prints simultaneously! The removable paper guide allows operators to easily load the small prints in the dark, and the light-tight paper feed cover allows you to turn on the lights immediately after loading the prints.

Special Features with PrintLab 3504
PrintLab model 3504 includes two special features to save you money and time.

The first is a built-in water heater for the rinse-water. These means only a cold-water supply is required. The other feature is a cleaning program. When the cleaning program is run the processor will automatically; drain the processing chemicals to bottles stored below, fill with water, wash the processing racks, drain itself, and wait until you're ready to start processing again.
