Abstract
The remote photographic processing system connects one or more photographic processing sites to a center having a database which stores a photographic printing condition at the photographic processing apparatus installed in each of the photographic processing sites via a communication line. The system then stores the photographic printing condition of previous printing such as simultaneous printing at each of the photographic processing sites. When each of the photographic processing sites which has received a request for later printing such as reprinting inquires the database in the center as to whether the photographic printing condition at the time of the previous printing corresponding to the request for the later printing is stored therein or not and catches that the photographic printing condition is stored, the request for the later printing is processed using the thus stored photographic printing condition. By using the remote photographic processing system, a photographic print having good reproducibility can be provided to a customer.
