Abstract
An apparatus for processing a sensitive material, specifically, photographic film which has been exposed, in which the processing liquids and washing water needed for developing, fixing and washing the film are supplied from removable cartridges. Liquid from the various cartridges is pumped to respective developing, fixing and washing stations through a structure which can be selectively inserted into and removed from the respective cartridges. As a result, no piping is required for supplying the processing liquids and washing water from external source to the processing apparatus, thereby simplifying the overall configuration of the apparatus.
