Abstract:
The present invention discloses a pre-manufactured unprinted photo album on which photographic images can be printed, and an apparatus and method for manufacturing a photo album using the same. Internal blank papers and a good-quality album cover sheet are bound to prepare semi-finished photo albums, and a photo album selected by a customer is opened in a photo studio so as to instantly print photographic images on surfaces of the photo album, thereby reducing the waiting time. Selection of the type of photo album and acquisition of a finished photo album can be quickly implemented. Since a semi-finished photo album, which is previously checked, is used, there is no problem of delayed acquisition of the finished photo album or of performing the process of manufacturing the photo album again. Since various semi-finished photo albums can be mass-produced, standardization of photo album is achieved, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost.
