  Hi Genie,

A copystand is a device used to make photos of photos, for the most part. It basically holds a camera over the print or artwork to be copied.

It is used often by labs when a customer asked to get a reprint but no longer has the negative. In such a job, the lab will use a copystand to make an interneg or copyneg.
