A total photo-lab system for automatic printing processing, cutting, sorting and enveloping. Each of a plurality of films spliced into a film roll is provided with a label printed with a respective ID number bar code. The same ID number bar code is provided on a respective envelope. During printing, the ID number of each film set in a printing position is read out so as to record a punch code indicative of the same ID number on a photographic paper besides the first print frame made from that film. The printed film is reserved until the corresponding print frames have been processed. The ID number of the processed photographic paper is read and compared with the ID number of the reserved film. When these ID numbers are identical, the film is cut and inserted into a film sheath sheet, whereas the photographic paper is cut into individual prints, and are sorted into each set of prints belonging to the same film. The film sheath sheet is inserted into the envelope having the same ID number as the film contained in that film sheath sheet, and then the prints having the same ID number are inserted therein.
