Abstract
A replenisher supply apparatus for photosensitive material processor is provided, which includes a cartridge, a replenisher stock tank, a sensor for detecting a solution level of the replenisher in the replenisher stock tank, and a flow means for causing the replenisher to flow from the cartridge mounted on the mount portion to the replenisher stock tank when the sensor detects that the solution level is at a predetermined value or below. As a result, even if the replenisher in the replenisher stock tank runs short during the process, the process can be continued without immediate replacement of the cartridge.
