ABSTRACT:
A photographic print copying station includes a scanner for scanning a photographic print. A mask is placed over the photographic print to indicate an area of the print for copying and an operator control is provided on the copying station for selecting a desired copy size. The copying station includes a logic and control circuit that responds to the signal produced by the scanner to recognize the mask area, separates the image area from the mask area, and resizes the image area to the selected copy size. The resized image is then printed by a printer in the copying station.
