ABSTRACT:
A laser imaging system includes a cartridge of photographic film, a laser imager, a film processor and an image management system responsive to image input data for controlling the imager and film processor. An optical bar code with a unique cartridge ID, film size, film type information and film sensitometric information is attached to the cartridge. The laser imager includes a cartridge receiving mechanism, a cartridge opening mechanism, a laser scanning system and an optical scanner mounted to the cartridge opening mechanism. Information is read from the bar code as the cartridge is opened. The image management system controls the laser imager as a function of the input data and the sensitometric information read from the bar code. The image management system causes the film processor to develop the film as a function of the film type information read from the bar code.
