    Roll paper holder / dispenser?

    Is there a light tight paper dispenser for roll papers? I'm looking to use color paper that now seems to come in roll paper only. Cutting this down in the dark is difficult. Is there a dispenser that has a cutter head that could be used in the dark to cut paper to a set size? One able to hold different size rolls would be needed.

    Yes ... Econo Roll, holds two 50 inch rolls at a time, you put the paper in the slot, pick your length and press .... rollers feed the paper and cutter slices .. paper is now at the bottom of the dispensor.
    Its pretty large , But IMO the best there is..... Larry I am looking for one as well so if you find one and feel its not appropriate for your use, then send me a email.

    John Callow may jump in here , he has a paper dispensor that sits on a table top and pushes the paper out to the length you want. I prefer the Stand Up Econo roll cutter.

    Thanks Bob. The Econo Roll sounds bigger than my darkroom can handle, but if I find one I'll let you know. My processor goes to 16" and the biggest drum I have will take 20x24. So 20" is probably as large as I would need.

    I forgot John used roll paper. It makes sense he would have a dispenser for it.

    Meteor-Siegen and Nuova Effemme made dispensers as you described. I have 2 Meteor's 65 cm wide (white) And 2 Nuova's one 51cm one 105 cm wide ( blue ) in my dark room.

    Printen is net als leren fietsen. Theorie helpt niet, je moet het doen.

    Hi Gary

    Those are like John Callows.
    The one I am referring to is a stand alone and looks like a huge filing cabinate.

    Are these roll cutters light tight? Can you keep paper in them with the lights on? Hmmm...
