Abstract

A cassette has a first bar code disposed on a lid thereof for being used for the user to register ID information and a second bar code disposed on a positioning reference surface of the cassette for being used to read ID information through a loading apparatus. The first and second bar codes are effective to determine whether a stimulable phosphor sheet housed in the cassette is either a single-sided sheet or a double-sided sheet.
