Abstract
In a printer processor, magnetic information is read out from a negative film by a magnetic head unit while the negative film is transported on a negative film carrier. Further, the density of each image is measured by an optical sensor of a sensor unit so as to detect a blank frame and an improperly exposed frame, thereby selecting images to be printed. After determining the print size of the selected images, a last image to be printed last, and a second last image to be printed before the last image is printed are specified. Based on the print sizes of the last image and the second last image, the printing order is determined before printing is performed.
