Claims (10)

  1. Procédé de traitement dans une développeuse pour un matériau photographique noir et blanc aux halogénures d'argent, sensible à la lumière, exposé suivant une image, comportant les étapes consistant à développer dans une solution de révélateur et fixer dans une solution de fixateur, caractérisé en ce qu'au démarrage du traitement ladite solution de fixateur comprend un mélange d'une solution de démarrage pour le fixateur et d'une solution régénératrice pour le fixateur, en ce que ladite solution de fixateur est régénérée au moyen de ladite solution régénératrice pour le fixateur et en ce que ladite solution de démarrage pour le fixateur est une solution tampon, étant une solution de révélateur, ladite solution de démarrage pour le fixateur changeant le pH en une valeur comprise entre - 0,3 et + 0,3 unités du pH de la solution de fixateur après acclimatation.
  2. Procédé selon la revendication 1, comportant l'étape consistant à mélanger ladite solution de démarrage pour le fixateur et une solution régénératrice pour le fixateur dans une section ou une cuve de fixage de ladite développeuse.
  3. Procédé selon la revendication 2, caractérisé en ce que ladite solution de démarrage pour le fixateur et la solution régénératrice pour le fixateur sont mélangées dans la développeuse avant le démarrage du traitement.
  4. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 3, caractérisé en ce que la solution de démarrage pour le fixateur comprend un ou plusieurs agents développateurs dans une quantité molaire de 0,015 à 0,080 par rapport aux ions thiosulfate dans la solution régénératrice pour le fixateur.
  5. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 4, caractérisé en ce que ladite solution de fixateur est exempte d'ions aluminium.
  6. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 5, caractérisé en ce qu'une quantité de solution de démarrage pour le fixateur est proportionnelle au volume de la cuve de la solution de fixateur dans la développeuse.
  7. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 6, caractérisé en ce qu'une quantité de solution de démarrage pour le fixateur est inférieure à 10 % de volume de solution régénératrice à laquelle elle est mélangée lors du démarrage du traitement.
  8. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 7, caractérisé en ce que ledit fixateur est régénéré au moyen de solution régénératrice pour le fixateur dans une quantité de 20 à 100 ml/g d'argent à fixer.
  9. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 8, comportant en outre l'étape consistant à développer dans une solution de révélateur comprenant un ou plusieurs agents développateurs choisis parmi l'hydroquinone, la 1-phényl-5-pyrazolidin-1-one, l'acide ascorbique, l'acide réductique, les stéréo-isomères ou leurs dérivés.
  10. Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 9, comportant les étapes consistant à développer, rincer, fixer et sécher, caractérisé en ce que la durée totale de traitement desdites étapes est comprise entre 30 et 300 s.
