It works with any Rolleiflex from the Automat onwards: we have discussed this and that ought to be in our defective archives. The process is this:

Load the 220 film. Shoot the first 12. Put the camera in a changing bag. Crack the back to reset the film counter. Close the back. Take the camera out of the changing bag (a necessary part of things!), and then shoot 12 more exposures. And Bob is your Uncle!

It is a bit more cumbersome, though simpler, than that Queen Anne's Salute mandated for the 12/24 TLR's.
