Problem with color prints

Waldi

I got old darkroom equipment and it came with color Fuji film (not sure how old it is but most likely at least 10 years0. So far I ventured into b&W prints with a lot of success (did it before in the past) so decided to try my luck with color (never done before) and my medium film. Purchased Tetanol c-41 kit and had a run with printing and my prints came a bit brownish with pinkish edge of the paper. I wonder if this is due to "old paper" or perhaps poor workflow (sticking to c-41 process workflow standard). I ready to give up on color printing but if this was due to paper being old I would try to get new color paper to try it again, so I am looking to confirm if brown outcome (pretty consistent) is related to outdated chemical and not my lack of experience. Hope someone with have some info on that. Thanks

Have I read correctly-- you are using Tetenal C41 kit for your prints ? if so, that is wrong -- you should be using RA4 chemicals for PRINTS and C41 to develop the FILM .
