The distributor www.photomart.co.uk should be able to put you in touch with other sites using Photomart Doli's, ideally one already using the model you're interested in. Our minilab guru is Jurie Gryffenberg, you can email him at jurie@photomart.co.uk. He's doing a show for the company in Ghana at the moment, but he will be back on Monday, March 12.

The Doli 2300 is very good but Doli have also since launched the DL-1810 which, like the 2300, prints up to 12".

They have completely re-designed it's construction and you can now run 3 magazines simultaneously as oppossed to just 2. It has a smaller footprint than the 2300 and it actually costs less than the 2300!

It's smaller brother the DL-0810 has recently won one of the DIMA awards at PMA in Las Vegas this year!

hi PhotoMart. Can you tell us where the 810's you have installed are and how they are doing. I read about the new machines in InfoLab and I'm sure other members of the Forum would be interested to know as they could be a good option when our current kit comes up for replacement. Would also be good to hear experiences from any 810 owner out there.

My personal experience that Doli is using CPDM technology from labnetplus Poland. The technology is good but as compare to workmanship with Noritsu. I can not suggest. inother hand if you are comparing with the price factor...... ;)

Hello fujilab & kioskguy,

Sorry, it's been a while since my last posting - had to fly to S.Africa on very short notice.

I am going to chase up that information you wanted fujilab. Kioskguy, just to put you in the picture, Photomart is the exclusive UK distributor for Doli Digital Photo Labs and fujilab has asked us to provide a few contact names of people operating the Doli 0810 in the UK. Of course we also need to contact them for their permission to post their details on this forum, so please bear with us, I hope to have some answers for you soon.

Hi Narinder,

May I just correct you on the technology used for the Doli.

I is not the same as the Labnet CPDM technology, we produce digital minilabs with the CPDM head inside and I consider that it produces a far better print than the Doli machines you are talking about here.

So please do not believe or allow others to think it is the Labnet CPDM technology, yes they did cooperate with Doli with some of the technical improvements whereby they used a version of their system  to improve the quality of print.

Hi fastlabuk and Narinder

Of course you would say that CPDM is better than Doli. You bringing these modules in from Korea then Darryle?

The truth is, there are many things that affect print quality, chemistry, paper emulsion, image quality and so on. Doli uses an LCD exposure system with an LED light source which in my opinion is far more reliable than any other configuration currently available and it too produces excellent quality prints!

The problem I have found with most analogue - digital converters are:

1. They slow things down, alot!

and

2. You lose an unacceptably large area of the original negative.

Personally, I would rather have a brand new machine for around

Hi jurieg,

Please read carefully because I think you have your wires crossed because my reply to Narinder was to inform him that the Doli and Labnet CPDM technology are not the same and the CPDM is better than the DOLI. As the previous UK and Spain Doli agent I speak from experience.

We do not import the labnet system in from Korea, it comes from Poland!

Yes there are lots of permutations that can alter your image, I too come from the processing industry and still do, I can assure you that it is not an add on in the way you think and have described, in fact the machine will run faster with the CPDM installed.

No area of print is lost from the negative, this is dependant totally on what your crop ratio is and has nothing to do with the machine.
