Abstract: A photofinishing apparatus is designed such that full bleed durable prints are produced with a high productivity and low waste generation process. The photofinishing apparatus in this case includes a printer and a finisher or post-print treatment processor. The printer is designed to produce media segment with multiple images of various formats. This media segment is then transported to the post-print treatment processor. The post-print treatment processor includes a dryer station, a durability station, a two-axis cutting station, and a print sorting station. The dryer performs the function of drying the media segment. The durability station performs the function of applying and or fixing durability material on the media segments. The two-axis cutting station includes slitting and chopping stations that performs the required two-axis cutting that produces the full bleed prints.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to several embodiments in which different self-developing film formats are constructed in order to permit easy operator separation of the pod and trap from adjacent integral film units.
