A total immersion liquid film gate is disclosed for use in a film projection printer for making prints of format originals or individual film frames. The liquid film gate is provided with cavities on each side of the film frame, and liquid is rapidly flushed through the cavities for filling the cavities and removing dirt from the film frame. Upon completion of the printing exposure, the liquid is cut off and an air-flush is commenced to dry the film. A vacuum slot surrounds the printing aperture for removing the liquid and providing an air return for the gate.
