Digital BW, The Print

But hang on a sec. What does a one second dry time do to the overall time it
takes to have a finished print??? I don't give a rat's ass about perceivable
pauses, it is the overall print time that matters.

Seems like this kind of delay would increase the overall print time by
orders of magnitude. 20 minutes instead of five or something like that. This
is totally unacceptable. And ridiculous.

Any feedback on real world numbers with one or two second dry time?

If all this is really true then my desire to own a 3800 is disappearing
fast...

First the Leica M8 is a complete and absolute disaster for me -- is
lightning about to strike twice?
Someone tell me that the 3800 is not a looming disaster for printing on
glossy paper...

Dave.
