I recently acquired a well-maintained Ilford CAP-40 print processor, at a very nice price. These machines were built for the now defunct Ilford Cibachrome color printing process. Basically, you put your chemicals in the machine, turn it on, feed your exposed paper into one side, and a few minutes later, your fully processed print pops out the other side ready to be washed.
