Clean water (52 ºC) 750ml
N-methyl p-aminophenol sulfate 3.1g
Sulphurous acid sodium without water (Na2SO3) 45.0g
Hydroquinone 12.0g
Sodium carbonate (Na2CO3)
67.5g
Potassium bromide (KBr)
1.9g
Add water to 1000ml
When making the prescription, the preparation should be added according to the order as mentioned above. When using, get the raw liquor to dilute in proportion of 1:2.at 20
ºC, printing paper for 11/2--21/2 minutes, enlarging paper for 2--4 minutes.
2. Stop bath: After developing, immerges photo paper in following stop bath solution for 20 seconds.

Glacial acetic acid (CH3COOH) 48ml
3. Fixing: F-5 fixing solution is recommended.
Sodium thiosulphate acid (Na2S2O3 .5H2O) 240.0g
Sulphurous acid sodium without water (Na2SO3) 15.0g
28%Glacial acetic acid (CH3COOH)
48ml
Boric acid (H3BO3)
7.5g
Potassium alum (KAI (SO4) 2.12 H2O)
15.0g
Add water to
1000ml
Immerge photo paper in fixing solution and flip it over, for 10 minutes at 20--25 ºC.
