Abstract
A photographic processing system. On a photographic film used for photographing images, an ID for specifying the photographic film is recorded in advance by codes which are mechanically and visually readable. On an accommodating case for accommodating the photographic film therein, the ID for specifying the photographic film is recorded in advance by the codes which are mechanically and visually readable. A reader reads at least one of the ID recorded on the photographic film, the ID recorded on the accommodating case, an ID recorded on a photographic printing paper onto which the images recorded on the photographic film are printed, an ID recorded on a DP bag used for handling photographic materials between a DPE shop and a lab, and an ID recorded on an index sheet on which the images recorded on the photographic film are recorded. Since the reader is provided, the burden imposed on the operator in the reading operation is alleviated, and photographic materials can be delivered speedily and reliably between a DPE shop and a customer.
