Abstract

A photographing box is arranged to reduce a time taken from photographing an object to printing the image of the object. The photographing box is intended to be manufactured at low cost and more easily maintained. The photographing box includes a photographing mechanism house for housing a photographing mechanism and a photographing space section. If paid, the photographing device is operated to illuminate an object, photograph the object, and do some image processing like image magnification or reduction or image layout. Plural images sized for different uses output on one cut sheet by a sublimation transfer printer. The photographing box operates to print out the image at high speed and is manufactured at low cost and more easily maintained.
