Pre-printed labels with a 100' roll -- nice touch, Ilford!


Recommended Posts

I recently bought an expired 100' roll of Ilford XP2 Super and had

been despairing of finding a way to have non-pro labs process the film

without making a fuss at the 'plain-black' home-labelled cartridges.

Lo and behold, when I opened the film box (in the changing bag) a thin

ribbon of labels fell out -- these turned out to be about 25

pre-printed Ilford XP2 Super labels, complete with all the standard

logos, of a perfect size for sticking onto plain black cartridges.

Makes them look very professional and difficult to distinguish from

the real thing (at a quick glance).

 

It would be fabulous if all 100' rolls came with these types of labels

-- especially C-41 and E-6 process films that are not likely to be

developed at home, though they'd be useful for conventional B&W too.

Anyone know of other film brands or lines that include nice

pre-printed labels?

This is nice to know. I assume the labels also have the DX coding. I see it makes a lot of sense for C41 process film.

<p>

What other C41 or E6 bulk film come with labels? Any one has something to say? May be this thread can become a searchable list of such films.
