Developer added to photocopier Colour prints nearly done

I think the title is pretty catchy!

So the developer which is magnetised and attracts the toner to the drum was replenished.

Back popped Jonathan Webb from EBS photocopiers to install said developer.

The blacks in my photocopies is now as black as night.

Today colour printing resumed on lining paper rather than the newsprint.

Mainly all went really well. Just some white marks on 20 prints to resolve.

The solution being to stop the print run and resume tomorrow morning when the machine is cold and has done a self-clean.

The lining paper was cut into 26cm pieces, keeping the width of the roll, on my A2 guillotine ( best buy of the book project so far!)

Grain runs north south of a roll, so when you put it on the wall, grain would run ceiling to floor.

I then flattened each piece but putting it through the photocopier with a blank 'screen', ie no image under the photocopier lid.

It is time consuming but works perfectly.


More interestingly, the music for the album is almost complete and one thing I really like are the noises that sound like someone is in the room with you, listening, the clicks, are they saliva sounds?
