A New Continuous Additive Color Printer for High-Speed Production

Hans Christoph Wohlrab

To increase efficiency and reliability, a new high-speed continuous printer with additive color control has been developed. This printer prints picture and sound in forward and reverse directions. A new type of reader with solid-state circuitry makes light changes possible in less than half the scene length of the Model C printer, despite the new, higher printing speed of 240 ft/min. Several safety devices are provided to prevent film losses due to operator errors in film threading or tape handling.
