PRINTING ON EASTMAN'S
SOLIO
PAPER.
Having
found
that
amateurs
can
easily
handle
our
Solio
Paper
we
have
now
substituted
it for
the
Ferro·P
r
ussiate
Paper,
which
we
formerly
furnisht'd with
the
ABC
outfits as
it
makes
far
handsomer
pictures
than
the
blue
prints.
Solio
prints
have
a warm,
brown
tone
and
are
usually
mounted
on
cardboard
and
highly
burnished.
METHOD
OF
PRJNTl
NG.
-Open
the
printing
frame
of
the
ABC
Outfit
and
lay
the
negative
back
down
upon
the
glass
(
the
back
is
the
shiny
side)
.
Place
upon
this a
piece
of SoliD
Paper
face down.
Replace
the
back
of
the
frame
and
secure
the
springs.
The
back
is
hinged
to
permit
of
uncovering
part
of
the
print
at
a
tim
e to
inspect
it
without
destroying
its
register
with
the
negative.
The
operation
of
putting
in
the
sensitive
paper
must
be
performed
in a
subdued
light,
that
is
to say in
an
ordinary
room, as
far
as
possible
from
any
window.
The
paper
not
used
must
be
kept
covered
in
its
envelope
.
The
printing
frame,
when
filled as
directed,
is to
be
laid
glass
side
up
in
the
strongest
light
possible
(s
unlight
preferred)
until
the
light,
passing
through
the
negativ
e into
the
sensitive
paper,
has
impressed
the
image
sufficiently
upon
it.
The
progress
of
the
printing
can
be
examined
from time to
time
by
removing
the
frame
from
the
strong
light, a
nd
opening
one-
half
of
the
hinged
back,
keeping
the
other
half
fastened
to
hold
the
paper
from shifting.
The
printing
s
hould
be con-
tinued
until
the
pr
int
is a
little
darker
tint
than
the finished
photograph
should
be.
Place
prints
without
previous
washing

the
following
