Lith printing materials update (also of interest to many B&W printers)

[Dave Miller]

Thanks for the up-date Tim, it’s nice to know that the future with respect to material supply is not as bleak as some would have us believe.

 

[Travis Nunn]

comcast ISP - and other emails bounced

There apears to be an 'issue' between my ISP and comcast and a whole batch of these updates to comcast addresses have been returned to me undelivered.
I'm sorry about this. I have informed my ISP. Not much else I can do.

Also, a number of others (random addresses) have been returned for a variety of reasons, so maybe some of these email addresses on my mailing list are out of date, wrongly inserted or ?? whatever. All the updates went 2 days ago, so if anyone didn't get theirs and should have, maybe their address is faulty.

I will send again shortly, but only to those on the end of my list, who registered since the first mailing, as a number of you have asked me to and the rest of you don't want it twice I'm sure. So if anyone was expecting to be on the first list but didn't get anything, maybe you should re-register? Just a thought.

[percepts]

many ISP's just delete anything they think is spam without telling anyone about it. Result is intended receiver says I didn't get it and sender says I sent it and neither knows what happened to it.

Your second mail (footnote) was quarantined by my isp but they at least tell me about it and give me the option to release it, which I did.

updated update posted on website

Just to let you know that a slightly updated version of the update I sent out recently has now been posted on the WOLP website news archive.
I know that a few people on the mailing list (comcast subscribers mainly) haven't been able to receive it by email.

I hope to send out more information on the Freestyle lith dev soon.

I must have joined the list with my old email address, which died last week.

Bummer.

Rejoined.

Further update

just to let you know that I have today added various updates/amendments/additions to the materials list on the News Archive section at The World of Lith printing website. Not all goods news sadly.

Thanks for the update Tim. Bummer about the Art Classic.

It will be interesting to see just how this new Rollei stuff turns out...

I think the original plans of getting Foma emulsions coated onto different paper bases have gone and it will now be straight Foma, hence the Foma codes. That is my understanding now from Maco. Their plans have undergone a number of changes though.

previous materials update updated

For information, I have updated the previous materials update on the WOLP site, to give the final Rollei paper codes and also regarding the new Kentmere Art Document Pro response to second pass lith (bleach & redevelopment in lith)
