The adequate processing is thus executed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a photographic paper backside printing device in a photographic processing system.

[Prior Art] In conventional photographic processing systems, when printing an image of a developed photographic film onto photographic paper, there is no relationship between the film number and the photographic paper; It was printed completely unrelated. Then, when printing is completed, the film and the print contents are finally compared.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Therefore, the operator has to memorize the order of the film and the photographic paper on which they are printed, and rely on this memory to perform the above-mentioned verification, which is a complicated operation.

Furthermore, if the order of the films or the printed photographic paper is changed for some reason, it becomes even more difficult to check the two, requiring a great deal of effort.

In some cases, there are marks on the back of the photographic paper for cutting each photo or for separating each order. There are also systems that allow you to write .

However, even with this device, there is no association between film and photographic paper, and as in the previous case,
A great deal of effort was unavoidable when comparing the film and photographic paper.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The present invention has been made for the purpose of solving the above problems, and includes the following configuration as a means for solving the above problems.

That is, a photographic paper back printing device in a photographic processing system that prints photographic information from a developing film onto photographic paper, and a registration means for registering film specific information for each film photographically printed in the photographic processing device in the printing order; a receiving means for receiving a command to print the back side of photographic paper from a photographic processing device; a comparing means for comparing the film specifying information in the print command received by the receiving means with the film specifying information registered in the registering means; The results of the comparison using the comparison means,
When the received film specific information matches the registered film specific information, the matching specific information, print frame number, and other print information specified for printing by the receiving means are used to print the back side of photographic paper. a print control means that generates information and supplies it to the photographic paper back side printing unit of the photographic processing apparatus to print on the back side of the photographic paper; and a print control means that is reset each time the film specific information is updated and prints each frame by the print control means. and a piece number control means for incrementing the piece number after completion.

Further, a registration means for registering message information to be printed on the back side of photographic paper corresponding to film specific information to be photo printed by the photo processing device, and a receiving means for receiving a command to print the back side of the photographic paper from the photo processing device; The message information corresponding to the film specifying information in the print command received by the receiving means is read from the message information registered in the registering means, and the message information corresponding to the film specifying information in the print command received by the receiving means is read out. The apparatus includes a print control means for generating photographic paper back printing information with the message information and supplying the generated photographic paper back printing information to a photographic paper back printing section of the photographic processing apparatus to perform printing on the photographic paper back.

[Function] In the above configuration, film specific information is registered in advance, for example, in the order of processing, and each time the photo processing device starts printing each film, the film specific information sent from the photo processing device and the registered film specific information are registered. When matching the film and the photograph, the film is compared with the photographic paper, and if they match, the film is printed in the correct order, and the film identification information and the print frame number or predetermined message information are printed on the back of the photographic paper to ensure consistency between the film and the photograph. , it is very easy to match, and even if the printing order is different, the situation can be immediately recognized and appropriate measures can be taken accurately and quickly.

In this way, by printing a specific message in addition to the film identification number on the back of the photographic paper, the operator can easily read the back of the photographic paper when the photograph is completed and easily determine which film to pair with. It can be identified and appropriate processing can be performed.

Additionally, since it also has the function of additionally printing frame pick-ups from film switching, the number of prints for each film can be confirmed by looking at the last print, and charge calculations can be made easily.

Then, as printing progresses and the order number is switched and a back print command is output, the data conversion control circuit 4 calls the data stored in the RAM 6, checks whether the order of the order number is correct, and then selects the corresponding twin Print the check pick-up on the back of the photographic paper. Then, when the photograph is completed, the operator can visually read the print data on the back side and easily determine which film should be paired with the photograph.

At the same time, it also has a function to automatically add and print a frame pick-up each time the order number is changed, and the number of prints for that order can be confirmed by looking at the last print on the back side. This makes it easy to calculate fees.

Although other color correction information is necessary, if the twin check pick-up and piece pick-up are not needed, the user can also enter necessary notes in this section.

Furthermore, it is also possible for all digit users to print arbitrary characters.

In this way, the device of this embodiment can be easily connected to a currently operating photo processing device (mini-lab system) without changing the main device.

The device of this embodiment has the following four functions.

(1) A function to auto-increment the twin check pick-up and piece pick-up (2) A function to arbitrarily change the back print memo on photographic paper (3) A function to arbitrarily change all digits (4) Data from the photo processing device When executing functions beyond the function of directly transmitting data to the backprint control section, the operator first operates the keyboard/display 5 to select the operation mode to achieve each function, and then selects the operation mode as necessary. Enter the data according to the selected operation mode.

This embodiment has the following four operation modes: mode 1 to mode 4.

(1) Mode 1 ■ Input of twin check pick-up in print order ■ Auto-increment function for back print frame number ■ Synchronization with sort data.

・Clear the piece number auto increment by sorting (every time the order changes) ・Update the twin check pick-up by sorting (2) Mode 2 ■Setting the 5 characters of the back print memo (twin check pick-up, auto increment location) (user can freely set) (configurable). ■There is no synchronization with sort data.

(3) Mode 3 - The user can freely set all digits (for example, 21 digits) of the back print.

■There is no synchronization with sort data.

(-4) Mode 4 ■Function to receive the back print data etc. from the photo processing device 1 and transfer it as is to the back printer side (mode with the same control as before without any modification) [Mode 1
[Explanation of Input of Twin Check Pickup] First, the operation in mode 1 for inputting/registering the twin check pick-up, which is most unique and important to this embodiment, will be explained below with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

Mode 1 is an operation mode in which twin check pick-up input is possible, back print and auto-increment functions are available, and there is synchronization with sort numbers.

First, in step Sl, press "" on the numeric keypad 55 of the keyboard 5a.
1" and the "MODE" key 51 to select operation mode 1. Since mode 1 is automatically set when the power is turned on, this process can be omitted. At this time, the display 5b The display shown in FIG. 5 is displayed.

In Figure 5, 3 digits l01 in the sort (SORT) column
(●) is a sort number that can be initialized by operating the cursor movement keys 56 and 57, and is automatically added each time a twin check pick-up is input.
By using the WD key 52 and the REV key 53, only the sort number can be incremented or decremented without inputting the twin check pick-up. This function is input/
It is used for confirmation processing of registered data after registration is completed. Note that normally the set value is not changed and is incremented one by one starting from "000".

The first three digits 102 (●) of the second column are the twin check pick-up input area, and when mode 1 is selected, the cursor is set to the first digit of the second column, that is, the twin check pick-up input position. .

Continued [The second digit 103 is an increment data field, which is initialized when updating the sort pick-up and is sequentially incremented for each print frame, and cannot be input from the keyboard 5a. The next three digits 104 are an area for displaying the sort number. Following this, the back print data sent from the photo processing device is displayed from the 9th digit onwards. Therefore, following step SL, the sort number is checked in step S2, and if it is the sort number of twin check pick-up registration, the process proceeds to step S5, where twin check pick-up is input from the keyboard 5a. Then, in step S6, the ENTER key 54 is input. When the ENTER key 54 is input, the data conversion control circuit 4 associates this input data with the current sort number and stores it in the RAM in step s7.
6 in a predetermined area. Then, in step s8, the sort number is incremented. In the following step s9, it is checked whether the confirmation and input of the twin check pick-up of the necessary sort number has been completed, and if it has not been completed, the process returns to step S2.
Continue inputting the next twin check pick-up and registering it in the RAM 6.

This input can be made continuously from 1 to 999 times.

On the other hand, when it is not the desired sort number in step S2,
Or, if there is no change in the previously set contents, proceed to step s3 and FW up to the predetermined sort number.
Move using the D key 52 and REV key 53. Then, the process proceeds to step S5 as the desired sort number.

This input is specifically (on page 111 below)
rt h reru.

<Manual power of data> First, use the "←" key 56 or the "→" key 57 to light up the cursor (only at the beginning).

Enter 3 digits of twin check pick-up from numeric keypad 55,
After inputting the correct number, press the ENTER key 54 to register it in association with the sort number. When the registration is completed, it automatically advances to the next sort number. At this time, the cursor has returned to the top of the second column again, and when registering the twin check pick-up for the next sort number, the 3-digit twin check pick-up can be input immediately. and ENTER key 5
4 is input, and the twin check pick-up registration process for the next sort number is performed.

Finally, the cursor is moved outside the display area using the ←" key 56 or the "→" 57 key, and the cursor is turned off, making it impossible to input data.

Modifying and referencing input data> It is possible to modify and refer to the sort number of the input twin check pick-up.

At this time, move to a predetermined sort number using the FWD key 52 and REV key 53. At this time, the twin check pick-up etc. registered in association with the selected sort number in the RAM 6 are read out and displayed in a predetermined display area of the display 5b. Therefore, by sequentially changing the display sort number, it is possible to refer to the twin check pick-up that has been input in association with the sort number.

In this case as well, press the "←" key 56 or "-4" key as necessary.
Use the 57 key to turn the cursor on/off and input corrections to the twin check pick-up.

Inputs for modification are the same as described above.

Note that the sort number is initially "000" and can be set sequentially up to a maximum of 999.

In this way, when the input of the twin check pick-up is completed, the printing process of step SIO (photo processing device 1
Printing a photograph on photographic paper and printing a twin check pick-up corresponding to the input sort number), etc.

Note that if the user wishes to back print a memo or other arbitrary data, the user executes each process in operation modes 2 and 3, which will be described later.

[Mode 2 back print memo input explanation] Mode 2
is an operation mode that allows input of arbitrary back print memos and arbitrary printing.

Operation mode 2 is a mode in which an arbitrary backprint memo that is backprinted on photographic paper is registered together with collection data that does not require any conversion. Note that this optional back print memo data is backed up even when the power is turned off.

The operation of this mode 2 will be explained below with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

First, in step S31, operation mode 2 is selected by inputting "2" on the numeric keypad 55 of the keyboard 5a and the "MODE" key 51. When operating mode 2 is selected, the display shown in FIG. 7 is displayed on the display 5b.

In the "MODE" column, "■", which is the current operation mode, is displayed, and in the SORT column, "***", which is the current sort number, is displayed. 3 digits 101 in this SORT column
is a new order number input (which can also be initialized by operating the cursor movement keys 56 and 57).
This is a sort number that is added when updating the print film, and is selected and set using the FWD key 52 and the REV key 53. Note that normally the set value is not changed.

Also, the first 3 digits of the second column and the following 2 digits total 5 digits 1
05 (● section) is a back print memo input area that can be set arbitrarily, and not only numbers but also alphabetic characters can be input.

The following 3 digits 104 from the 6th digit to the 8 digits are an area for displaying the sort number sent from the photo processing device 1, and the subsequent digits are various data input in mode 3 for which back printing is desired. This is a column that shows.

Each input method is the same as mode 1.

That is, in Figure 7, the 3rd digit 1 in the SORT column
01 is a sort number that is added when a new order number is input (print film update), which can be initialized by operating the cursor movement keys 56 and 57, and can be selected and set by using the FWD key 52 and REV key 53. be done.

Note that normally the set value is not changed.

In the first five digits 105 of the second column, not only numbers but also alphabetic characters can be input. The next 6 to 8 digits 104 are photo processing equipment l
The 9th and subsequent digits of the sort number are a data display area where various back print data are displayed.

For this reason, the sort number is checked in step S32, and if it is the desired sort number, the process proceeds to step S35, and if it is not the desired sort number, the ENTER is checked in step S33.
The R key 54 is input to increment the sort number one by one until the desired sort number is reached and the process proceeds to step S35.

In step S35, a desired back print memo is input from the keyboard 5a, and in step S36, the ENTER key 54 is input. The data conversion control circuit 4 performs step S
At 37, this input data is stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 6 in association with the current sort number. And step S3
8 increments the sort number. Continuation In step S39, it is checked whether or not the confirmation and input of the necessary sort number data has been completed. If not, the process returns to step S32 to continue inputting the next back print memo and registering it in the RAM 6. This input can be made continuously from 1 to 999 times.

If input of various back print memos has been completed, the process moves to step SIO for printing.

Specifically, this input is performed in the following steps.

Turn the cursor on/off using the “←” key 56 or the “-4” or “57” key as necessary, and first select the first 5 on the second line.
Enter 5 alphanumeric characters for 105 digits. This input is performed using the SKIP key 52, the BACK key 53, and the numeric keypad (in this case, the SKIP key 52 and the
The assignment of the keys on the numeric keypad 55 changes depending on the setting of the CK key 53. For example, “Number keys →” A to I” → “JN
R″→“SNZ”→ a～i″→″j～r → S～2
→ Select and input the desired alphanumeric characters by cycling through the "numeric keys" in order.

[Explanation of inputting specified data in mode 3] Mode 3 is the second
This is an operation mode that allows input of arbitrary data in columns and arbitrary printing.

Operation mode 3 is a mode in which arbitrary backprint data to be backprinted on photographic paper is registered together with collection data that does not require any conversion. Note that this arbitrary backprint data is backed up even when the power is turned off.

The operation in this mode 3 is substantially the same as the operation in mode 2 shown in the flowchart of FIG. 6, except that alphanumeric characters of a maximum of 21 digits are input in step S35. Therefore, only the operations different from mode 2 will be described below.

``3'' of the numeric keypad 55 of the keyboard 5a and ``MOD''
E" key 51 is input to select operation mode 3. When operation mode 3 is selected, the display shown in FIG. 8 is displayed on display 5b.

The "MODE" column displays "■", which is the current operation mode, and the SORT column 101 displays ***, which is the current sort number.

Further, 106 in the second column is a manual/confirmation area for various data input in mode 3, and a maximum of 21 digits shown in the figure (●) can be arbitrarily set (alphanumeric characters can be entered).

Each input method differs from mode 2 only in the number of digits.

[Description of display data in mode 4] In mode 4, back print data etc. sent from the photo processing device 1 are sent as they are to the back printer control unit 2,
Further, this data is displayed as it is on the display 5b.

The display format is the same as when mode 3 is selected as shown in FIG. In this case, the display data on the second line is unrelated to the data registered in the RAM 6 and becomes data received from the photo processing device l.

[Print Processing] When the above input processing is completed, back printing processing is executed according to the settings of each operation mode.

As mentioned above, in mode 1, this printing process performs automatic increment of twin check pick-up and piece pick-up, in mode 2, the back print memo can be changed arbitrarily and printed, and in mode 3, all digits of the back print can be changed arbitrarily, In mode 4, the data from the photo processing device 1 is printed out as is. In the printing process, the photo processing apparatus 1 sends a sort number sequentially incremented from "000" as a sort number.

[Print Process] The details of the above print process will be explained below with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 10 showing the print process in mode 1, which is the characteristic process of this embodiment.

In the printing process in this mode, the display shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the display 5b, and any pre-registered twin check pick-up can be printed along with the sort number during printing. .

In the printing process, in step S50, the photo processing apparatus l waits for reception of the sort number sent in correspondence with the print of the photo and the print data for the back side of the photographic paper sent for each print. When the sort number and print data are output from the photo processing device l and sent to the data conversion control circuit 4, the process advances from step S50 to step S51, where the sent sort number is stored in advance in the RAM 6 along with the twin check number (order number). Check whether it matches the zote number registered in . If there is a matching number and it is a registered number, the process advances to step S52, and the twin check pick-up corresponding to the sort number is read out. The first is “000”, and the sort number in RAMS is “000”.
The twin check number (order number) registered in association with " is read out.

Then, in step 853, this twin check pick-up and the frame pick-up that is automatically incremented by the data conversion circuit 4 for each print frame (when the sort number is updated, "1"
'') and all the collection data that does not require conversion among the data sent from the photo processing device 1 to generate back print data for photographic paper.Then, the following step S53 The print data generated in step S55 is transmitted to the back printer control unit 2 together with the print command.

Upon receiving this, the back print control section 2 performs step S.
At step 55, the received data is sent to the back printer 3, and the received data is printed out on the back side of photographic paper. Then, in step S56, the frame is sequentially picked up by "1" each time it is printed on photographic paper.
When the printing of one sort number (order number) is completed, the process returns to step s5o and moves on to the next process.

On the other hand, when the received sort number is a number that is not registered in the RAM 6 in step S51 (when a sort number in a different order from the registered sort number is input), the process advances to step S60, and an error is reported. . And step S6
1 executes the corresponding error handling. This occurs when the order of the films to be printed specified by the pre-scheduled sort number (order number) is different, or when a film that should not be processed by the photo processing device is about to be printed. This is because it is a case etc. Note that at this point, print processing similar to mode 4 or processing in mode 2 or mode 3 is executed, and the photo processing device 1
The received data may be sent as is to the back printer control unit 2 together with the print command, thereby controlling the data so as not to be consistent with the sort number.

According to this embodiment, the film order number (twin check pick-up) is input in advance from the keyboard 5a and stored in the RAM 6, and when the sort number is changed, the twin check pick-up which is the stored order number is called up and printed. By printing this twin check pick-up along with the command, the operator can read this part with his or her eyes when the photograph is completed, and easily determine which film should be paired with the photograph, allowing appropriate processing to be carried out.

In addition, since it also has a function of additionally printing a frame pick-up from order switching, the number of prints for that order can be checked by looking at the last print, and the price can be easily calculated.

If the photo processing device 1 is capable of transmitting the order number along with the sort number, it can further check the consistency between the printed photographic paper and the film by comparing it with the twin check number registered in the RAM 6 and determining a match. can be taken.

In addition, color correction information is necessary, but if the twin check pick-up and frame pick-up are unnecessary, print processing in mode 2 may be executed.

In the case of the print mode in mode 2, instead of the process in step S52 in mode ■, the back print memo registered in association with the sort number is read out, and in step S53, in addition to this back print memo, the photo processing device 1 Out of the sent data, collection data that does not require any conversion is combined to generate back print data for photographic paper. Then, this composite data can be backprinted.

Furthermore, in the case of print processing in mode 3, all digits of arbitrary character print registered by the user are read out from the RAM 6, and collection data that does not require any conversion among the data sent from the photo processing device 1 is read out. All you have to do is to combine them and generate backprint data for photographic paper.

As explained above, according to this embodiment, the film identification information is registered in advance, for example, in the order of processing, and is registered with the film identification information sent from the photographic processing apparatus each time printing of each film is started in the photographic processing apparatus. If the information matches the specified film information, it will be printed in the correct order.
By printing the film specific information and the print frame number or predetermined message information on the back of the photographic paper, it is very easy to match the film and the photo.
Furthermore, even if the printing order is different, the situation can be immediately recognized and appropriate measures can be taken accurately and quickly.

In this way, by printing a specific message in addition to the film identification number on the back of the photographic paper, the operator can easily read the back of the photographic paper when the photograph is completed and easily determine which film to pair with. It can be identified and appropriate processing can be performed. Furthermore, since any message can be printed on the back side of the photographic paper of the photograph, it is easy to ensure consistency between the film and the photographic paper, and this back side printing function can also be utilized as a service to the user.

In addition, since it also has the function of adding and printing frame pick-ups from film switching, the number of prints for each film can be confirmed by looking at the last print, and charge calculations can be made easily.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, when back printing onto photographic paper, the sort numbers sent from the photo processing device are checked, and if there is an error in the sort number order, this is detected. Errors in the predetermined film printing order can be detected and dealt with in advance.

In addition, the twin check pick-up and frame number for each order can be printed on the back of each frame of the photo, making it extremely easy to compare the film and the photo, and also to calculate the fee easily. can.

Furthermore, arbitrary data can be printed on the back side of the photographic paper, making it easy to ensure consistency between the film and the photographic paper, and this back side printing function can also be utilized as a service for users.
