It seems that this is a relabeled Japanese made LPL 6600 enlarger, or possibly, a 6700. It can be equipped with a dichroic-filtered color head (prints color or B&W). It can also be equipped with a simple condenser head using an opal enlarger lamp. This version is usually used for B&W printing, but might be equipped with below-the-lens filters for color work.

By perusing the links below, you might find the version you have. The first link shows the latest model with the B&W head. Some of the other links show an older version with an old-style color head.

Welcome aboard! A photo or two would certainly help. Please see here, let me know if you have any questions: https://www.photrio.com/forum/threa...s-and-avoid-size-limit-problems.211668/unread

Aye suppose i could try that in lightroom, But think ive just worked out the problem,,,,,Dont think the light will project correctly with the 6x6 negative carrier and a 50mm lens??

seems to be doing the business fine with 35mm and 50mm

I jus bought this because it was cheap with accessories, and i can print the negs from my RB_67, with a 6x6 crop obviously, which i have only shot once since buying it a long time ago

been on the hunt for an LPL 7700 for couple monthe but postage being a problem as im in the North Highlands, so c6600 colour do fine just now

got a saved search on ebay for a 80mm rodagon f4, seem to always miss um, am sure that will sort projection

A 50mm lens doesn't cover 6x6cm, so that's not a meaningful combination to try and get to work. If this works OK with 35mm and the 50mm lens, I'd say everything is A OK.
The enlarger looks very tidy and complete, congrats!
