How do you print exposure data on a fuji gx680 III film roll?

pgram · May 16, 2013

Hi all,
i just acquired a beautiful Fuji GX680 III (thanks, Simon) and i'm very happy of the first results (just two rolls, still wet from development).

I'm at loss when i try to activate the print function in the film holder.
The manual is not clear... does anybody knows the exact procedure?
i was able to set the date and time, but i was unable to activate the actual printing of the data on the border of the roll.

Thanks in advance,
Paolo from Italy

Hi Paolo,
I made a short video for you, hope it answers the question you're asking?
cheers,
Dan

Fantastic! i'll try it as soon as it stops raining... why the manual was so cryptic, i don't know... you are crystal clear!

THANKS!

hi dan,
i did what you said, shoot a roll but still i don't see any data on my negatives.
the only difference is, i had both the AV data and the date showing on my LCD, non only the AV data; but if i pushed the data/iso button, the time and AV data were showing in the LCD.
i have a doubt: is that option available if i shoot 6x8 negatives?
thanks for your help

CORRECTION! the data are there indeed, but very faint. i'll wait for the negs to dry, and then i'll check better.
