..When making a print there are very few steps that are different from making a contact sheet. Some things that are different: Now you are projecting light through your negative. You are using filters to control contrast. You are moving the head up and down to enlarge the image on the paper.

 

..Step 1 - Before turning off the lights make sure all your chemicals are ready and all the materials are close by the enlarger for ease of use.
..Step 2 - Now turn the lights out. Turn on the enlarger head. Make sure your photo paper is not in contact with any light. Check the f-stop setting on the enlarger, to that which your instructor has determined.
..Step 3 - Select a filter which will control contrast. Often times filters are not used until a test strip is made. If you know which filter you'll need, take it out now.
..Step 4 - Slide the filter into the filter mount.
..Step 5 - After placing your negative in the negative carrier, place the negative carrier in the slide stage.
