Abstract: A high-efficiency contact printer, which takes advantage of the economic potential of prestriped color print film, has been designed. In its present form as a 35mm/super 8 printer, it can, in a single pass, print four identical rows of pictures and the corresponding four identical magnetic soundtracks. The pictures are contact-printed from a 35mm/super 8 internegative and the sound records are reduction-transferred from a 16mm magnetic sound master. Continuous monitoring of the four magnetic soundtracks increases printer reliability. Operation is at 200 linear ft/min, yielding 800 ft/min of super 8 sound prints. This concept is applicable to other prestriped motion-picture formats.
