CVS Pharmacy One-Hour Processing
I needed a couple of quick & dirty 4 x 6 prints, so I copied the images over
to a CD-RW and went to a Kodak Kiosk at CVS Pharmacy. They had a one-hour
processing facility there, and I got a look at the equipment, which was made
by Fujitsu. There was a roll of film that had just come out of the
processor, and the operator moved it onto a scanning unit, which scanned the
negs and cut them into strips. They were then printed by the same unit that
printed my own digital images (I had used other Kodak kiosks where the
prints were dye sub, and that dropped out of the bottom of the kiosk, but
this setup was different in that the kiosk did not do the printing. All
printing, whether film or digital, was done by the main Fujitsu unit.)
Does anyone know what resolution that equipment scans negatives at to
produce 4 x 6 prints? In my case, I resized the images to 300 dpi
resolution, but I wonder what settings they use for customer film
developing?
