Foil cues were used to facilitated a level of projection booth automation that is incompatible with [[archival best practices]]. As archival booths are expected to use a two-projector [[changeover]] system and be staffed at all times, automation is neither necessary nor desired.

Stray foil cues will not trigger inadvertent automation functionality unless a cue proximity detector has been installed. Nevertheless, archive vault staff will often remove leftover foil cues because they are viewed as a [[print contaminant]]. Older foil cues can sometimes leak adhesive, which tends to attract dirt and dust. Some foil cues will be quite easy to remove, while older cues may be more difficult as well as leave residue behind.
