Kodak RA 4 Flexicolor Replenisment

I develop my color paper using Nova vertical processor, Kodak Developer with starter to set things up.
As I am replenishing, do I use the replenished straight or do I need to mix replenisher and starter again for my
To replenish. My intuition tells me just replenisher, no starter.

And the same for the bleach ?

Thanks,
Charles

the starter is just for the initial mix, it provides stuff that normally comes off the paper or film. you would normally only use it is you are mixing a fresh batch or partly replacing your chemical. (like if you had a leak)

Starter is used (in a replenished system) only when a new tank of chemical is mixed. The starter basically "seasons" the chemical.

Use your replenisher straight (or mixed) as per the box instructions BUT you don't need any starter for it.
