Abstract:
1. A print order receiving system, comprising: a plurality of imaging apparatuses for imaging an object; an order receiving apparatus connected with said plurality of imaging apparatuses through a network, said order receiving apparatus receiving orders for a print-out of all image data obtained by imaging of the object, the imaging being performed by said plurality of imaging apparatuses; an image storing apparatus connected with said plurality of imaging apparatuses through the network, said image storing apparatus storing the image data including the captured image data supplied from said plurality of imaging apparatuses through the network; a print-out apparatus connected with said plurality of imaging apparatuses through the network, said print-out apparatus printing the image data including at least the captured image data supplied from said image storing apparatus through the network to output initial printed matter; a user terminal connected to the network and including a computer for displaying to user a preview image selected from the stored image data; and a shipping terminal connected with said plurality of imaging apparatuses through the network, said shipping terminal executing shipping processing of the initial printed matter corresponding to the captured image data, wherein the initial printed matter from said print-out apparatus is one of hologram and parallax image printed matter, and the captured image data obtained by said plurality of imaging apparatuses is used for said hologram or parallax image printed matter, wherein said network comprises a first network, said order receiving apparatus comprises a first order receiving apparatus and said system is connected with a plurality of communication terminals for executing a reorder of a later printed matter that is a printed matter of image data based on the captured image data through a second network, the second network being different from the first network; and a second order receiving apparatus connected with said plural imaging apparatus through the first network and said plural communication terminals through the second network, said second order receiving apparatus receiving a reorder of the later printed matter, the reorder being issued from said plural communication terminals; and a charging and settlement apparatus connected with said plural communication terminals through the second network, said charging and settlement apparatus executing charging and settlement of payment for the reordered later printed matter, wherein: said first order receiving apparatus receives the reorder of a print output of the image data based on the captured image data through the first network, the print output having been reordered by said communication terminals to said second order receiving apparatus through the second network, in response to the execution of the charging and the settlement by said charging and settlement apparatus; in response to the receiving of the reorder of the print output of the image data based on the reordered captured image data by said first order receiving apparatus, the image data based on the reordered captured image data is supplied from said image storing apparatus to said first print out apparatus through the first network, and said first print out apparatus prints the supplied image data to output the later printed matter; and said shipping terminal executes shipping processing of the later printed matter corresponding to image data based on the reordered captured image data, wherein said imaging apparatus is adapted for obtaining image data including parallax image data and generates information concerning imaging, the information indicating contents of the imaging of the parallax image, at every imaging, and said imaging apparatus supplies the information concerning imaging as order data to said first order receiving apparatus through said first network.
