ABSTRACT:
An image handling system, and a method which can be executed on such a system comprising a plurality of processor-scanner stations remote from one another, interfaced with a hub station that is in turn interfaced with a plurality of terminal. Each processor-scanner station having at the same location: a processor which can process exposed photographic film to produce a hardcopy image set; a scanner system which can scan the hardcopy image set to obtain a corresponding image set signal; and a first communication interface for communicating the image set signal to a remote hub station. The hub station, which can be remote from each of the scanner stations, comprises: a second communication interface to receive image set signals from each of the plurality of scanner systems; a first storage to store the image set signals; a third communication interface for transmitting the image set signals to any of a plurality of terminals remote from the hub and each of the processor-scanner stations. A plurality of terminals that are remote from the hub station and each of the scanner-processor stations, and connected to communicate with the hub station.
