PCT No. PCT/EP91/02201 Sec. 371 Date May 21, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date May 21, 1993 PCT Filed Nov. 22, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/09932 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 11, 1992.It is known to provide agitation of processing solutions in photographic processing apparatus using jets. Jets are also known for urging material between sets of rollers. However, such jets are not known to impart drive to material being processed as it passes through the apparatus. Described herein is an arrangement in which material (M) is transported through a narrow elongate tank (20) by means of processing solution which is directed into the tank (20) by means of high speed jets (24, 25). The jets (24, 25) have two functions, namely to drive the material (M) through the tank (20) and to supply processing solution to the tank (20) simultaneously. Such an arrangement has the advantage of providing high speed processing apparatus which occupies minimum space and has few moving parts.
