I've aquired a hope print processor model 2000, I wish to know:

1. can i print from my slides with this processor.

2. what chemical process is used (can you include chemicals)

3. what paper is best for this process (machine uses paper rolls)

4. has anyone got a full instillation manual i could borrow, or buy for a reasonable price.

uh....you bought a Hope and you've never used one?....I believe Kreonite supports those now:

FWIW, alot of smaller companies rebuild & maintain Kreonite processors as well....you might be able to find a tech person in your area that can service yours....better have one lined up if you plan on using it alot...all these processors need maintenance with use, and if this one is old, you might want to have it checked out before you even plan on setting up...especially if you've never used one.... you probably will need hot & cold water filters and a water control panel as well as a silver recovery unit too....it's going to be a beast to use if it's a floor model. The only Hopes I've ever been around were huge, with racks the size of a good sized office desk.... Good luck.
