Are you asking about the color of the light?

yes. ive looked through previous posts that mention the two color lights, but never seen a response as to why there are two colors. is there a guide on how to use one of these with B&W and color paper, given that ive never used an enlarger before a list of what to use and not use would be great.

The Graflarger uses an Aristo cold fluorescent tube. The color of the tube is due to the period it was manufactured in. The Grafarger is designed for B&W printing.

This thread on Large Format Photography Info says it.
