Hi All,
My enlarger has paper channels and tables. The tables as you can see from the photo below, tell the enlarger how to set the filters. The enlarger came with 5 preprogrammed tables, one of which is for ILford Multigrade IV. I use the new Deluxe version now, and I also use their Art 300, and MG Fiber papers. I have no tables for them and was wondering how to figure out the figures for those papers so I can make tables for them and what I need to adjust on the MG IV table for the new Deluxe version.
Thx

sruddy, interesting but completely irrelevant to your objective is the appearance on your table of the German word for paper in what otherwise seems to be English words for each of the columns

Papier seems to be both French and Italian for paper.
As it comes from Durst, I would bet on Italian

I couldn't find it in Italian but no matter My curiosity was roused when it was the only non English or French/ German word in what seems to be an English worded text

Durst is an Italian firm, but from a small area in the north where German is the main language. Durst as a company has always been a German language entity first and foremost. "Papier" is German for paper. Looks like just a slip of the keyboard, or an omission in translation. Nothing very puzzling about it.
