DIGITAL CAMERA, PRINTER, PRINT SYSTEM, AND PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a print system which customers can readily try.

SOLUTION: In the print system 101, a photographed image obtained by a digital camera 1 is stored in a memory card 91 and the image is given to a printer 4 via the memory card 91. The printer 4 prints out the photographed image in the memory card 91 loaded to the printer 4. The number of printed photographed images is set by applying a prescribed operation to the digital camera 1. The setting information is recorded in the memory card 91 and the printer 4 carries out printing on the basis of the setting information. In the case of a trial on a storefront, a memory card to be exclusively used for the trial is utilized. When the memory card 91 loaded to the printer 4 is the trial exclusive card, the printer 4 is set to a "trial mode", and the number of photographed images to be actually printed is limited within two cards. Thus, production of many amounts of printed matters is prevented during trial and the print system 101 can be readily tried by the customers.
