Setting the Dryer Temperature
When films exit the DRYER ASSEMBLY they should be “just dry.” The films will feel cool to the touch, but will
be dry.
• If films are wet and feel tacky when they exit the DRYER ASSEMBLY, then the dryer setpoint temperature is
too low.
• If films are over dry and feel hot to the touch when they exit the DRYER ASSEMBLY, then the dryer setpoint
temperature is too high.
Note
• Wait 5 minutes between dryer temperature adjustments so that the DRYER can reach the new setpoint
temperature.
• Typically once set up, the dryer setpoint temperature will not be significantly out of proper adjustment. Under
most conditions, turning the DRYER TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB clockwise to the fifth detent will
serve as a good starting point when adjusting the dryer setpoint temperature.

Locating the DRYER TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB
To adjust the dryer setpoint temperature to the correct temperature setting for your standard film size and
type, follow the steps below.
Note
• Single-emulsion films may require a slightly higher dryer setpoint temperature than double-emulsion films.
• Kodak T-Mat Films may require a slightly lower dryer setpoint temperature than other film types.
[1] Turn the DRYER TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB, located on the DISPLAY PANEL on the front of the
PROCESSOR, so that the POINTER on the KNOB points straight up
↑
.
(a) If you are turning the DRYER TEMPERATURE CONTROL KNOB from its full counterclockwise
position, you will feel 5 detents as you turn the KNOB to its upright position.
[2] Feed a test sheet of pre-exposed, non-processed film.
(a) Choose the type and size of film most commonly used.
