Claim 10
Dependent Claim
107 words
A photosensitive material magazine, loaded in a photoprinting device, for accommodating a photosensitive material, said magazine comprising: an information reading means for reading information needed for setting exposure conditions, said information including at least a type of said photosensitive material and being outputted from said photoprinting device; a storage means for storing said information read by said information reading means; and an output means for outputting said information stored in said storage means; further comprising a display means for displaying items of said information read by said information reading means, said display means including a display unit visible from an outside surface of said photosensitive material magazine.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
107 words
A photosensitive material magazine, loaded in a photoprinting device, for accommodating a photosensitive material, said magazine comprising: an information reading means for reading information needed for setting exposure conditions, said information including at least a type of said photosensitive material and being outputted from said photoprinting device; a storage means for storing said information read by said information reading means; and an output means for outputting said information stored in said storage means; further comprising a display means for displaying items of said information read by said information reading means, said display means including a display unit visible from an outside surface of said photosensitive material magazine.
