Information on the frames to be reprinted and the number of reprints designated in this way is sent to the control unit 100 of the controller CO.
When the designation of the frame to be reprinted is completed by the printing frame designation device EP, the operator loads the film 2 into the main body of the photographic printing device 1.

The photoprinting apparatus 1 has three modes in which the exposure conditions of each frame are set differently, namely, an auto print mode, a pre-judge print mode, and a manual print mode. Auto print mode is for Film 2
In this mode, the image information of the frame is read by the reading means RD, the exposure condition of the frame is automatically determined based on the read information, and the printing is automatically performed. There is no need for the operator to operate. In the pre-judge print mode, the image information of the frame of the film 2 is read by the reading means RD, and the exposure condition of the frame is automatically determined based on the read information. Piece 3 on photographic paper 3
In this mode, a simulated image when the image is printed on the monitor MT is displayed on the monitor MT, and the operator can correct the exposure condition as needed. In the manual print mode, the exposure condition is not automatically determined, but the operator visually checks the density of the frame of the film 2 and empirically determines the exposure condition. In this manual print mode, the work of placing the film 2 on the film placement unit 30 of the burning piece designation device EP and designating the burning piece and the operation of inputting the exposure condition of the designated piece from the console O are performed.

Of the three modes, the auto print mode and the manual print mode are automatically processed in principle after the film 2 is loaded.

The positioning of the film 2 and the like are performed in the same manner in any mode. The loaded film 2
The image information of the frame is read by the reading means RD. When the reading is completed, as shown in FIG. 6, the image information of the frame designated as the frame to be reprinted is displayed as a simulated image. FIG. 6 illustrates a case where all six frames are designated as additional frames. At this time, whether or not the frame is designated as a frame to be reprinted is determined by the information on the order of the frames sent from the burnt frame designation device EP, the transport distance from the leading end of the film 2, and the film not shown. 2 is performed based on detection information of a sensor that detects an edge portion.

In the display state of the monitor MT shown in FIG. 6, a print number display field PN for displaying the number of prints of each frame is provided in an image display field E for displaying a simulated image of the print frame to be printed. The operator can correct the number of additional prints from the burnt-piece designating device EP or the console O if necessary. When the number of additional prints is large, the number of additional prints can be designated by inputting a number from the console O. Further, the input of the number of reprints may be made entirely from the console O instead of being performed by the burnt-piece designating device EP. Accordingly, the console O is also provided with the number-of-prints input means EN in the same manner as the input keys 33 of the burnt-piece designating device EP.
And the console O also functions as a part of the burning piece designation device EP.

The display on the monitor MT includes reading means RD.
The exposure condition calculated by the exposure condition calculation unit 102 based on the read information is displayed in the exposure condition display field F. When the operator inputs the correction of the exposure condition from the console O, based on the input, The display changes. When the above operation is completed, the frame designated as the frame to be reprinted is read by the reading means RD.
