Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate an obstacle to automatization of extra printing processing by forming a reorder information recording part on a negative sheet housing a piece negative and deciding an extra printing condition based on the reorder information. SOLUTION: While a customer checks an image frame 10a, he(she) records the number of extra prints as the reorder information at a spot corresponding to the image frame 10a being an extra printed object at the reorder information recording part 6 provided on the negative sheet 1. Plural negative sheets 1 taken to a laboratory from a DPE store are made the long-length one by a splice tape 1y and thrown in a printer processor 100. As to the negative sheet 1 thrown in, the reorder information is read from the recording part 6 by a detecting device 93. The image frame 10a of the desired piece negative 10 is printed by the desired number, so that the photographic print is formed. The finished photographic print is delivered to the customer via the DPE store together with the negative sheet 1.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a reorder processing system using a recording medium on which reorder information for producing a photographic print from a piece negative is recorded.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a negative film photographed by a camera is taken to a DPE store and requested to be printed simultaneously. In a developing laboratory (lab), a negative film is developed, and the visualized image frame is printed on photographic paper. Simultaneously printed photographic paper and developed negative film are handed over to the customer from the DPE shop. At that time, the negative film is cut in 4 or 6 frame units as a piece negative, and each piece negative is stored in a transparent resin film negative sheet. It is individually stored in the section. In order to facilitate a customer's request for additional printing, a white satin-finished additional printing number entry area is formed in the lower part of the storage section of the negative sheet in accordance with the number of image frames of the negative piece. At the time of a reprint request, the customer writes the desired number of prints with a pen in the reprint number entry area corresponding to the selected image frame. At the photo lab, take out the piece negatives stored in the storage area where the number of additional copies is entered in the additional number entry area, and send them to the printer to print the number of additional copies, or fill in the negative sheet number entry area in advance. Printing must be performed after all the entered numbers and their image frame numbers are keyed in. However, the numbers that each customer fills in with a pen are:
Not only is it difficult to read mechanically (that is, with optical, electronic, and magnetic readers)
In some cases, it is also difficult for a worker in a developing laboratory to visually check. For this reason, it has been attempted to newly copy the information on a reorder card at a DPE shop so that the reorder information can be reliably read at a developing laboratory. In this case, since the number of the image frame to be reprinted and the number of reprints are input to the printer by reading the reorder card, the printer reads the latent image barcode formed on the supplied piece negative, and reads the barcode. Using the read image frame number and the reorder information input from the reorder card, the image frame to be reprinted is positioned at the exposure position.

[0003]

In any case, in the transfer of the above-mentioned conventional reorder information to the printer, the number of reprints written on the negative sheet and the position information of the image frames to be reprinted are directly sent to the controller inside the printer. Therefore, the process of transferring the reorder information to the printer is a bottleneck in the automation of the additional printing process. An object of the present invention is to mechanically (i.e., optically, electronically,
An object of the present invention is to provide a reorder processing system in which reorder information read (using a magnetic reading device) is used by a controller inside a printer to specify the position of a frame to be reprinted and the number of reprints.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, in a reorder processing system according to the present invention, a reorder information recording unit for recording reorder information in units of piece negatives is formed on a negative sheet for storing piece negatives. In addition, a reprint condition for an image frame to be reprinted is determined based on the reorder information read by the detection device from the reorder information recording unit.

In this configuration, if the number of reprints of the image frames to be reprinted in each piece negative is recorded directly in the reorder information recording section of the negative sheet containing the piece negative, it is provided in, for example, a print processing system in a developing laboratory. By putting the negative sheet into the detection device as it is, the reorder information is read from the reorder information recording unit corresponding to each piece negative stored in the negative sheet,
The print processing system recognizes the additional printing conditions of the image frame to be additionally printed. For example, if the additional printing condition includes the arrangement position of the image frames to be reprinted in the piece negative and the number of additional copies, the detection information is used to pull out the piece negative having the image frame to be reprinted, and obtain the desired image paper. It becomes possible to perform the number of printings.

In particular, if the above-described detecting device is provided in a printer processor that draws out a piece negative from a negative sheet and performs a printing process, the negative sheet is inserted, and a piece negative having an image frame to be additionally printed is automatically converted from the negative sheet. An automated reorder processing system that creates a photographic print by drawing out and printing on photographic paper is realized.

At that time, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention,
There are proposed a method of performing the reorder information reading operation of the detection device on the transported negative sheet and a method of performing the operation on the stopped negative sheet. Since the piece negative pulled out of the negative sheet for the printing operation is returned to the same negative sheet storage section again, the negative sheet is normally stopped during the printing operation. In the above method, the reorder information is detected by utilizing the state in which the negative sheet is stopped. In this case, if the detection area of the detection device covers the area of the reorder information recording unit, the reading operation is immediately completed, but the detection area of the detection device does not cover the area of the reorder information recording unit. In this case, the detection device needs to have a scanning function. Alternatively, a detection method for the transported negative sheet may be employed. In this case, if the detection length of the detection device in the transverse direction to the conveyance direction covers the length of the reorder information recording unit, even if the detection device is a fixed type, the movement of the negative sheet in the conveyance direction will , The entire area of the reorder information recording section is scanned, which contributes to simplification of the structure of the detection device.

According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the present invention, the reorder information recording section extends along the longitudinal direction of the piece negative stored in the negative sheet, and the detecting device is parallel to the reorder information recording section. There is an image sensor that is configured so that an image frame to be reordered for a piece negative is specified by the detection area of the line sensor that has read the reorder information. In other words, by dividing the detection area by the line sensor in accordance with the arrangement order of the image frames formed on the piece negative, the information detected from the area detected by the line sensor can be changed to what number of image frames from one end of the piece negative. Can be specified. This makes it possible to accurately recognize the position of the image frame to be reprinted for each piece negative without requiring the frame number or the like in which the latent image barcode is formed on the piece negative.

As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is proposed that the recording in the reorder information recording section is performed by a mark sheet system. In this case, it is possible to print only the mark sheet system entry frame on the negative sheet. Since the burden on the entry side is small and the detection device is already technically matured, a smooth reorder processing system that reads reorder information directly from the negative sheet and automatically performs additional printing processing becomes possible.

As another embodiment of recording in the reorder information recording section, a punch card method can be adopted when it is not a problem to form holes in the negative sheet. Further, it is possible to employ a magnetic recording method. In this case, however, generally, a customer at a DPE shop instructs a clerk to use a magnetic recording device to reorder information on a magnetic layer formed on a negative sheet. Will be recorded.
In any case, the reorder information recorded by the above-described recording method or a recording method similar thereto is reliably read from the negative sheet by the detecting device, and is used for controlling the transport of the piece negative having the image frame to be printed and setting the number of exposures. Is done.

As a preferred embodiment according to the present invention, a plurality of recording sections are provided in which a reorder information recording section is divided so as to be visually recognizable with respect to an image frame of a piece negative stored in the storing section. If an image frame to be reprinted is selected, an image frame to be reprinted is selected and then the number of reprints is recorded in a recording section formed at a position corresponding to the image frame, particularly at a position that can be visually confirmed. Therefore, while checking the desired image frame with the piece negative stored in the negative sheet, the number of prints can be recorded at the correct position, that is, at the correct partition. One of the preferable arrangements of the recording sections at that time is as follows: each recording section corresponds to each image frame (or, more accurately, each image frame based on the piece negative correctly stored in the negative sheet storage section). Area) is proposed to be at least partially overlapped. In this arrangement, each image frame and the reorder information recording section for the image frame are two-dimensionally integrated, and Is extremely easy to handle.
As another suitable arrangement of each recording section, an arrangement in which each recording section is located around the corresponding image frame is also proposed, and in this arrangement, the recording section and the image frame do not overlap. Therefore, the correspondence between them is somewhat lower, but there is no danger of damaging the film by pressing an image frame with a pen tip or the like during recording.

In view of the fact that cameras that use photographic film not only in full size but also in half size exist, in the embodiment of the present invention, each recording section has a full size image frame and a half size image frame. Some are configured to support both frames.

As a preferred embodiment for realizing convenience in recording the reorder information, there is provided a means for canceling at least a part of the reorder information recorded in the reorder information recording section. In particular, a cancellation mark for canceling at least a part of the reorder information once recorded in the reorder information recording unit in order to realize the means is set in advance, and this is recorded corresponding to the reorder information to be canceled. By doing so, erroneously recorded reorder information can be easily canceled if the corresponding reorder information is deemed to have been cancelled. This is an easy canceling work, especially as compared with the erasing of the entry mark in the mark sheet method and the closing work of the perforated hole in the punch card method. of course,
It is also possible to adopt a configuration that can be erased with an eraser. Other features and advantages according to the present invention will become apparent from the following description of embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings.

[0014]

FIG. 1 is a conceptual diagram of a reorder processing system according to the present invention. While checking the image frames 10a formed on the piece negatives 10 stored in the negative sheet 1, the customer reorders the image frames 10a in the reorder information recording unit provided on the negative sheet 1 at positions corresponding to the image frames 10a to be additionally printed. The number of additional prints is recorded as information. The negative sheet 1 on which the reorder information is recorded is brought to a DPE shop, and an order receiving process such as attaching the issued order ID sticker 1x to the negative sheet 1 is performed. The plurality of negative sheets 1 brought from each DPE store to the developing lab are lengthened by a splice tape 1y or the like, and are input into the printer processor 100. The reorder information of the negative sheet 1 loaded into the printer processor 100 is read from the reorder information recording unit by the detecting device 93, and the desired piece negative 10
The desired number of image frames 10a are printed, and a photographic print is created. The finished photographic print is delivered to the customer via the DPE store together with the negative sheet 1. That is,
In this reorder processing system, reorder information recorded on a negative sheet by a customer is not transferred by a
And used for additional printing.

Hereinafter, the negative sheet 1 and the printer processor 100 used in this reorder processing system will be described.
Will be described in detail. FIGS. 2, 3 and 4 show an example of the negative sheet 1 on which reorder information can be recorded according to the present invention. The negative sheet 1 is formed by folding a sheet made of a transparent resin film into two to form a back sheet portion 2 and a front sheet portion 3. The back sheet portion 2 and the front sheet portion 3 are joined along a joining line 4 at a constant pitch. Bonding line 4 and bonding line 4
A storage section 5 for storing the piece negative 10 is formed between the storage sections. In FIG. 2, in order to make the relationship between the negative sheet 1 and the piece negative 10 easy to understand, the uppermost storage section 5 is empty,
Six full-size image frames 10 are stored in the second storage section 5.
A piece negative 10 having a half size image frame 10a is stored in the storage section 5 of the third tier, but usually a full size and half size piece negative 10 Never enter the same negative sheet 1.

On the front sheet portion 3 between the adjacent piece negatives 10 stored in the storage portion 5, a mark sheet area 6 for recording the number of additional prints as a band-shaped reorder information recording portion is formed along the joining line 4. . The mark sheet area 6 for recording the number of additional prints is subjected to a white satin finish, and the image frame 10a of the stored piece negative 10 is stored.
, Each of which has four white squares 9 deviated to the left of the corresponding image frame 10a and arranged along the joining line 4. A second filling portion 8b is printed in which one filling portion 8a and four white squares 9 are displaced to the right of the corresponding image frame 10a and extend along the joining line 4. further,
Numbers 1 to 4 are printed in order above the four rectangles 9 of the first filling portion 8a, and numbers 5 to 8 are printed in order above the four rectangles 9 of the second filling portion 8b. I have. This number represents the number of reprints, and the number above the filled rectangle 9 is the number of reprints, and if a plurality of locations are filled, the sum of the numbers above them is the number of reprints. Therefore, when all the rectangles 9 are painted out, the number of additional prints is 1 + 2 +... + 8 = 36.
It becomes a sheet. In the example of the second row in FIG. 2, six pieces of the first image frame 10a from the right end of the piece negative 10 stored in the storage section 5 of the second row are added. It should be noted that the number above this white square 9 is a full-size image frame 1
0a is applied to a negative piece.

The numbers below the open rectangle 9 are used for the number of additional copies of the piece negative 10 having the half-size image frame 10a stored in the third-stage storage section 5 for the purpose of explanation. Things. Since the image frame 10a to be applied is a half size, 1 to 4 are provided below both the first filling portion 8a and the second filling portion 8b.
The numbers up to are printed. As a result, the partition 7 corresponding to all the half-size image frames 10a is obtained.

In the reorder processing system using the negative sheet 1 as described above, a desired image frame 1
The negative sheet 1 corresponding to 0a and filled with squares 9 representing the desired number of additional copies is received at the DPE shop with the reception ID sticker 1x affixed to the developer while the piece negative 10 is stored in the storage section 5. Can be At the developing station, the image frame 10a is printed on a photographic paper 86, and the photographic paper 86 is subjected to a developing process so that the photographic print 1 is formed.
5 is provided, and the appearance of the printer processor 100 is as follows.
As shown in FIG. 5, an exposure unit 80 is mounted on the front side of the exposure unit 80, and a reprint unit 90 for supplying the piece negative 10 contained in the negative sheet to the exposure unit 80 is mounted on the right side of the exposure unit 80.

First, the exposure section 80 will be described with reference to the block diagram of FIG. A film transport mechanism 82 for forming a film transport line 81 from a negative sheet for the piece negative 10 to be printed to an exposure point 85 is provided, and an image frame 10a is provided on the film transport line 81.
Is provided to the controller 84, and is used for determining exposure conditions and displaying on the monitor 84a. At the exposure point 85, an exposure light source 85a, a dimming filter 85b that adjusts the color balance of irradiation light from the exposure light source 85a by the yellow, magenta, and cyan filters coming and going in the exposure optical path, Mirror tunnel 85 that uniformly mixes light whose color balance has been adjusted by filter 85b
c, the image of the image frame 10a to be printed is
A printing lens 85d for forming an image thereon, a shutter 85e, and a transport roller 87 for transporting the photographic paper 86 from the paver magazine 86a are provided. The position of each filter of the light control filter 85b and the opening time of the shutter 85e, that is, the exposure time, are controlled in accordance with the exposure condition determined by the controller 84. If the operator of the printer processor 100 looks at the display on the monitor 84a and does not obtain an appropriate image, the operator can input a correction instruction for the determined exposure condition from the console 84b. The exposure condition is corrected to determine the final exposure condition. Then, based on the determined exposure conditions, the operation of each part of the exposure point 85 is controlled, and the printing paper magazine 8 is controlled.
The image of the image frame 10a to be printed of the piece negative 10 is projected and exposed on the photographic paper 86 pulled out from the 6a. The controller 84 also controls the film transport mechanism 82 by driving the transport motor 82a.

Next, a reprint unit 90 for supplying the piece negative 10 to be printed to the exposure section 80 based on the reorder information recorded on the negative sheet containing the piece negative 10 is shown in FIG. 5 and a schematic view of FIG. It will be described using FIG. The reprint unit 90 includes an input section 91 for inputting an elongated negative sheet by connecting a plurality of negative sheets by a splice tape 1y;
A belt conveyance unit 92 that conveys the input negative sheet in the transverse direction of the negative pieces stored in the storage unit, an optical sensor 93 that optically scans the mark sheet area 6 of the negative sheet 1, and a pulling unit that pulls the negative sheet 1 from the storage unit 5. A transfer mechanism 94 is provided to send the piece negative 10 to be printed to the film transport mechanism 82 of the exposure unit 80 and to insert the piece negative 10 received from the film transport mechanism 82 into the negative sheet storage unit. The controller 84 also controls the belt transport mechanism 92 and the transfer mechanism 94.

The optical sensor 93 has a built-in line CC.
D is attached so as to extend in a direction orthogonal to the transport direction of the negative sheet 1. When the mark sheet area 6 of the negative sheet 1 enters the detection area of the line CCD, the filled state of the squares 9 arranged in a straight line is detected. ,
It is sent to the controller 84. The detection signal from the line CCD is made to correspond to each section 7 of the mark sheet area 6, that is, divided into six detection areas,
In this divided detection area, the first division unit 8 is further divided.
a and the second division unit 8b are evaluated separately. Thereby, the controller 84 determines, from the detection signal for one mark sheet area 6, what number mark, that is, the square 9 of the specific division 8a or 8b of the specific division 7 is filled. The printing process can be performed for the ordered number of image frames 10a. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the transport line 81 of the piece negative 10 to the exposure unit 80 and the optical sensor 93 are separated by three pieces of the piece negative 10 on the upstream side in the transport direction of the negative sheet 1. According to the evaluation of the detection signal from 93, the piece negative 10 considered to be a burning target is transported by the belt transport unit 92 until the preceding three piece negatives 10 pass through the transport line 81 and reach the transport line 81 by themselves. Then, the transport of the negative sheet 1 is stopped, the negative sheet 1 is pulled out of the storage section 5 of the negative sheet 1 by the transfer mechanism 94, and sent to the film transport mechanism 82. Next, the position of the piece negative 10 having the image frame 10a to be reprinted, the position of the corresponding image frame 10a in the piece negative 10, and the number of reprints are determined.

The length of the image frame 10a of the piece negative 10 conveyed by the film conveying mechanism 82 is first measured by the scanner 83 or an optical sensor (not shown) provided specifically for the image frame.
It is determined whether a is half size or full size. Based on this determination and the detection data of the mark sheet read by the optical sensor 93, the specification of the image frame 10a to be reprinted and the number of reprints are calculated. In other words, referring to the example of FIG. 2, in the second-stage negative piece having the full-size image frame 10 a, the tip (the end on the open end side of the storage unit 5 in the state of being stored in the storage unit 5) First image frame 10 from the top
a is to be reprinted six times. In the third stage negative piece having the half-size image frame 10a, the first image frame 10a from the front end is printed two more times.

When the piece negative 10 is transported by the film transport mechanism 82 until the image frame 10a to be reprinted reaches the opening of the auto negative mask 85f located at the exposure point 85, the image frame 10a is reprinted. It is printed on the photographic paper 86 by the amount. After the printing, the piece negative 10 is again inserted into the negative sheet storage section in the reverse order. The exposed photographic paper 86 is supplied to the developing unit 8.
Then, the developed print is cut off after drying, and is discharged from the developing unit 88 as a finished print.

When the negative sheet 1 is stopped at the position where the piece negative 10 is sent to the transport line 81, the mark sheet area 6 for the piece negative 10 on the upstream side in the transport direction just enters the detection area of the optical sensor 93. The optical sensor 9 can be used until the burned piece negative 10 is pulled out of the storage section 5 of the negative sheet 1 and inserted into the storage section 5 again.
The mark sheet area 6 located in the detection area 3 is read by the optical sensor 93. That is, in this embodiment, the mark sheet area 6 is read while the negative sheet 1 is stopped. Of course, in this reading operation, the optical sensor 93 may detect a mark painted on the mark sheet area 6 while the negative sheet 1 is being conveyed, or the optical sensor 93 and the negative sheet 1 may be filled with the mark sheet area 6 due to relative movement. Various scanning methods such as a method of detecting a mark that has been moved and a method of moving both of them can be used.

Each time the piece negative printing operation is completed, the negative sheet 1 is fed by the belt transport section 92 at the pitch of the storage section 5 and discharged from the discharge section 95. In the case where the optical sensor 93 detects a mark filled in the mark sheet area 6 while the negative sheet 1 is being conveyed,
The negative sheet 1 is continuously conveyed until the negative piece 10 to be printed reaches the conveyance line 81.

An important point of this reorder processing system is a mark sheet format which can be read by the printer processor 100 itself on the negative sheet 1 storing the piece negative 10 to which the reorder information such as the position of the additional image frame 10a and the number of prints is stored. Is recorded in the form of, only by inserting the negative sheet 1 into the printer processor 100, the desired image frame 10
a is to be reprinted in a desired number.

Next, another embodiment of the negative sheet 1 according to the present invention will be described. The negative sheet 1 shown in FIG.
The reorder information is recorded in the mark sheet system in the same manner as the negative sheet according to the above. The piece negative 10 is formed in a region overlapping with the upper half of the piece negative 10. Also in this case, the mark sheet area 6 is composed of a partition 27 that is divided so as to correspond to the image frame 10a. Have been. In the left partition 27, four white squares 9 arranged vertically are arranged.
And a first filling portion 28a having a number from 1 to 4 attached to the white square 9 is printed,
In the right partition section 27, similarly to the first filled section 28a, the white squares 9 and 1 to 4 in the layout to be mirrored
The second filled portion 28b having the numbers up to is printed.

Piece negative 10 stored in storage section 5
Has a full-size image frame 10a (in FIG. 8, the piece negative 10 in the second-stage storage section 5), the first
The number of additional prints can be recorded by using both the filling part 28a and the second filling part 28b. Storage section 5
In the case where the piece negative 10 stored in the first section has a half-size image frame 10a (the piece negative 10 stored in the third-stage storage section 5 in FIG. 6), the first filling section 28a
And the second filling unit 28b are separate image frames 10
a (usually two image frames 1 of A and B having the same frame number)
0a) can be recorded.

In the negative sheet 1, four white squares 9 are vertically arranged, that is, arranged in the transport direction of the negative sheet 1. Therefore, the optical sensor 93 for reading the mark sheet area 6 is configured as a line sensor and transports the negative sheet 1. However, it is controlled to detect the filled state of all the white squares 9.

The reorder information of the negative sheet 1 shown in FIG. 9 is recorded in a mark sheet system in the same manner as the negative sheet of FIG. 2, and the mark sheet area 6 as a reorder information recording section is formed by folding the front sheet section 3. It is formed in an end area, specifically, an area overlapping with the left end of the piece negative 10 stored in the storage section 5. Also in this case, the mark sheet area 6 is composed of eight integrated partitions 37, and each partition 37 and each image frame 10a of the stored piece negative 10 are printed on the left end.
Are associated with numbers from to. That is, the number 1
The partitioning section 37 having the leftmost image frame 10a (in the case of full size) and the partitioning section 37 having the number 2 are displayed in the second image frame 10a (in FIG. 9, the order of the frames is shown by a large number for easy understanding. Yes) and so on.
Further, a first filling part 38a and a second filling part 38b are printed on each partition part 37. The first filled portion 38a and the second filled portion 38b correspond to the number of additional prints from 1 to 8 in the case of the full size, and from 1 to 4 in the case of the half size, similarly to the negative sheet 1 according to FIG. This corresponds to the number of additional copies. For example, in FIG. 9, the reorder information recorded in the second-stage mark sheet area 6 indicates that the second image frame 10a from the left, indicated by a large number 2, is to be printed twice.

In the negative sheet 1, eight horizontal squares 9 are arranged in six rows in the transport direction of the negative sheet 1. Therefore, the optical sensor 93 that reads the mark sheet area 6 is configured as a line sensor, and
Is controlled so as to detect the filled state of all the white squares 9 while transporting. Since the width of the mark sheet area 6 is short, the length of the optical sensor 93 as a line sensor can be shortened.

The negative sheet 1 shown in FIG. 10 is obtained by changing the negative sheet 1 shown in FIG. 2 from a mark sheet system to a magnetic recording system, and has a mark sheet area 6 coated with a magnetic layer. The recording of the reorder information is performed by the magnetic head, but the position of the additional image frame 10a,
Data indicating the number of additional prints, color density, and the like are written. Since the recording by the magnetic head is performed by the DPE shop or the development laboratory, the recording sheet is formed on the front sheet portion 3 corresponding to the upper part of the piece negative 10 in which the entry column 41 for the customer to write the reprint order with a pen or the like is stored. I have.
In this case, of course, a magnetic head is mounted on the printer processor 100 instead of the optical sensor 93.

In the negative sheet 1 shown in FIG. 11, a mark sheet area 6 is formed in an upper area and a lower area of one storage section 5. The upper mark sheet area 6 includes a first partition section 56a for recording the number of additional prints and a second partition section 56b for recording color density information, and the lower mark sheet area 6 includes a second partition section 56 for recording trimming information.
It is composed of a partition 56c.

The first partition 56a has four vertically aligned
One white square 9 and the numbers 1 to 4 attached to the white square 9 are printed, and the number on the left of the filled square 9 is the number of additional prints.

A white square 9 is printed in a 4 × 7 matrix on the second partitioning section 56b, and yellow, magenta, cyan, and density items Y, M, C, and D, respectively, are printed on the left side of the matrix. D represents each item of the correction value in the upper side of the matrix. -3, -2,-
1, N (no correction), +1, +2, +3 are printed. For example, in the case of recording a correction value of cyan +3, a square 9 in which the vertical item is C and the horizontal item is +3 may be painted.

A white square 9 is printed in a 3 × 3 matrix on the third partition 56c, and this matrix corresponds to the trimming position shown in FIG.
In FIG. 12, reference numeral 60 denotes a full-size print screen, 61 denotes a trimming position shifted to the upper left, 6
Reference numeral 2 denotes a center trimming position, and reference numeral 63 denotes a trimming position shifted to the lower right, which corresponds to the fill of the upper left square 9a, the fill of the middle square 9b, and the fill of the lower right square 9c of the third partition 56c. .
Similarly, squares 9 forming a 3 × 3 matrix corresponding to the nine trimming positions correspond to the other trimming positions.
Can be expressed using

Next, using the mark sheet area 6 shown in FIG. 11, a description will be given of a method of writing a mark for canceling a once-filled mark. In the second first section 56a from the left in the second row of FIG. 11, the uppermost rectangle 9d (representing one sheet) indicating the number of prints and the third rectangle 9e from the top are shown.
(Representing three images) are also painted out, and the frame 59a of the numeral 3 is also painted out. This number frame 59
Is filled, the printer processor 1
The controller 84 of 00 functions so as to regard the number of reprints as cancellation. Therefore, in this case, the number of reprints: 3 is canceled, and the number of reprints: 1 is a square 9
It becomes effective by filling d. A similar canceling method is also possible in the second partitioning section 56b. In FIG. 9, a +1 square 9f and a +2 square 9g are filled in the Y item and the +1 frame 59b and the Y item, respectively. Frame 59
Since c is also filled, the correction value of +1 is canceled in the Y item determined by +1 and Y, and only the correction value of +2 is valid in the Y item. Such a method of canceling a once-filled mark can be applied to the mark sheet areas 6 of all the negative sheets 1 described above.

Next, an example of a correction method that does not use a cancellation mark will be described. By using an acetate film as a pencil-writable film sheet or by performing seal printing, characters and symbols written on the surface can be erased with an eraser. As described above, a configuration in which a mistake made in a mark sheet can be corrected by using an eraser by making a negative sheet with an acetate film or applying a seal print on the surface of the negative sheet is also applicable to the reordering recorded in the reorder information recording unit according to the present invention. FIG. 5 is one embodiment of a means for canceling at least a portion of the information. FIG.

In the embodiments described above, examples in which a mark sheet system or a magnetic recording system is adopted as a method of recording reorder information have been described.
