Abstract
A processor for extracting a large format self-developing film unit from a cassette, applying a compressive pressure along the length of the film unit to distribute a fluid processing composition between predetermined layers of the film unit, and providing a substantially light-free environment for the film unit for imbibition. The processor features an imbibition dark chamber formed by first and second dark chamber sections. The first section is in the processor housing and the second section pivots between an extended position where it forms an extension of the first section and a storage position wherein it is located in a recess in the processor housing in overlying relation to the first section.
