Abstract
An apparatus for processing photosensitive material. The apparatus includes a processing chamber having an entrance and an exit for allowing a photosensitive material to travel through the processing chamber. A first supply means is provided for supplying processing fluid to the processing chamber to create a first fluid layer on one side of the photosensitive material and a first drain for removing processing fluid from the first fluid layer. A second supply means is provided for supplying processing fluid to the processing chamber to create a second fluid layer on the opposite side of the photosensitive material and a second drain for removing processing fluid from the second fluid layer. Means are provided for minimizing oxidation of the processing solution.
