Even with the graded Panalures prints from color negs have always been a pain.
Some enlarge heads have less trouble with it.
The low contrast paper can have more contrast then a higher contrast paper.
I think the paper is very age sensitive.
In the future if i ever get a call for one I'd have the neg scanned and then
output to a black and white film negative.
