   But how much effect does it have on development kinetics? 
Papers made for activation processing are characteristic in 
having a very short induction time. I use Kodak, Ilford, and 
Agfa papers and can see the difference between the Ilford 
papers which cannot be used in activation processors and the 
Kodak and Ilford papers which can. I do not consider this a 
shortcoming but only something that is observable.
   The developers I generally use for printing are Kodak 
Dektol 1:2 and more recently Agfa Neutol Plus 1:9. At these 
dilutions these two behave very similarly.
