I'm looking toward buying something like that to print 6x9 neg, any advices about this enlarger? Or any good enlarger that does 35mm to 6x9 I don't need the 4x5 possibility. What is the standard lens for 6x9 enlarger? 105mm? Also, any hint for paper washer? I need something that is fast and efficient. thanks,

Beseler 23C is solid. I only ever used mine for 35mm but it was pleasant to work with. Too long ago now for me to remember any specific quirks about it but I don't think there were any annoying issues. ~105mm would be standard for 6x9. As a general rule, anything equal to or longer than a "normal" lens for a given format is suitable for enlarging. You could probably get by with a 90 if you print very large often and need the coverage but if not, yeah, 105 would be good. I printed on RC paper and always washed my prints under running water immediately after fixing. No special wash bath and no problems. Unless you're printing on FB, I don't think you need a fourth bath.

That is what I was trained on. They do a very good job. I don't know about others, but this one I have used.

I got my 23C, a nikkor 50 f2.8 an schneider 80 f5.6 a 24x36 carrier and 6x9. I'm just missing a 105mm lens.
