Method and apparatus for evaluating and processing a strip of originals to be copied

摘要

The strip of originals is transported through an evaluating station where the originals are evaluated with respect to density, color, copiability, or the like. Information indicative of the results of these evaluations is manually entered upon a strip-shaped first information carrier in spatial coordination with the originals of the strip. Thereafter, at another location, the information on the first information carrier is transferred to a second information carrier. The strip of evaluated originals is then transported to a copying apparatus and there copied in accordance with the information on the second information carrier. The strip of originals itself can be utilized as the second information carrier.
