Abstract
A method of drying electrophotosensitive film by bringing the film into intimate contact with a specific area of a develop-mask of a liquid developing station, blowing gas against the film while maintaining such contact and to such an extent that a film of liquid developer remains on the photosensitive film, and while in such condition moving the photosensitive film to a drying station having a drying opening of an area larger than that defined by the developing mask, thereby uniformly drying the specific area wetted by the liquid developer.
