Contact Printing Frame 12x16 *No Longer Available*

What does a contact printing frame does?
It brings the negative into direct contact with the paper carrier, pressing them firmly together across the entire surface, without any air bubbles.
Since printers often work with textured artist paper, the printing frame must also be able to bring textured paper into the closest contact with the negative.
In this case possible variation of pressure is extremely useful.
A good printing frame renders expensive vacuum presses unnecessary.


Lotus contact printing frames are manufactured of waxed cherrywood with a split back for better handling (you can check your print without moving it) with anodized black springs and also two aluminium bars where you slip the springs.
The back is covered with dense felt.
