PURPOSE:To eliminate a solution pool between rollers by applying a 'Teflon(R)' coat to an upper roller among a pair of upper and lower rollers conveying a photosensitive material, forming the lower roller in a sectional shape and providing a small clearance between the rollers. CONSTITUTION:A path outside each processing solution tank is provided with a pair of upper and lower bridge rollers 45. The 'Teflon(R)' coat is applied to the surface of the upper roller 451, and the lower roller 452 is sectionally provided with the single bodies 452b with narrow widths. The clearance 454 corresponding to the thickness of the photosensitive material is provided between the rollers, and prevents a solution pool occurring on each contact part and the photosensitive material from being pressurized strongly. Moreover the upper roller is brought into contact with a cleaning roller 48 to absorb moisture. As a result a solution pool on the biting part 453 between the upper and lower rollers is eliminated, and such trouble can be completely eliminated that a crystal arising between the rollers is transferred on the photosensitive material as soil.
