Abstract

A photoprinter is provided in which a first detecting apparatus detects first information used to specify a magazine from a first information portion provided at each magazine when the magazine is mounted, and a second detecting apparatus detects second information related to setting of the exposure condition of the photosensitive material from a second information portion provided in an end portion of the photosensitive material loaded into the magazine when the magazine is mounted. A memory apparatus causes the first information detected by said first detecting apparatus to correspond to the second information detected by the second detecting apparatus and to store both information therein. A selecting apparatus selects the second information which has already been stored in the memory apparatus in association with the first information which has already been stored in the memory apparatus on the basis of the first information detected by the first detecting apparatus at this time when the magazine is mounted, and a rewriting apparatus rewrites the second information stored in the memory apparatus into second information detected at this time in case that the second information selected does not coincide with the second information detected by the second detecting apparatus at this time. Whereby, the information about the photosensitive material loaded into the magazine can be specified even when the magazine is replaced by another or the photosensitive material is refilled during the course of use.
