When desired images are recorded on an image receiving sheet 140 by laminating a toner layer of a transfer sheet 240 as heat-mode sensitive material and an image receiving layer of an image receiving sheet 140 to be fixed to a recording medium fixing member 310 and exposing the transfer sheet 240 of a recording medium while moving the recording medium fixing member 310 in a main scanning direction and also moving a plurality of aligned laser beam spots in a vertical scanning direction that is perpendicular to the main scanning direction, exposure is carried out by laser beam spots which are inclined such that a spot on an upstream end in the vertical scanning direction is positioned on a downstream side in the main scanning direction rather than a spot on a downstream end in the vertical scanning direction.

It is the purpose of the present invention to provide an image recording method and image recording apparatus for performing high-density recording without degrading the resolution. A desired image is recorded on a recording medium by exposing the image on the recording medium while moving the recording medium in the main scan direction where a toner layer of a transfer sheet is overlaid on an image reception layer of an image reception sheet as well as moving a plurality of laser beam spots arranged on the recording medium in the sub-scan direction orthogonal to the main scan direction. In this practice, a recording process on the transfer sheet is repeated a plurality of times to record a same image repeatedly with transfer sheets replaced after the transfer sheet has been exposed.

A recording medium station 53 includes sheet set portions to which rolls of toner sheets 4′ with cover films 6 stuck thereto and rolls of image receiving sheets 2′ with cover films 6 stuck thereto are set, and cover film winding-up portions located close to the sheet set portions. Those sheet set portions and the cover film winding-up portions are disposed along the circumferential outer surface of the recording medium station 53. An end of the cover film 6 slightly stripped off the recording medium is fixed to the wind-up shafts 12, and the cover film 6 stripped off the recording medium set to the medium setting shafts 10 is wound up with a wind-up shaft 12. The stripped cover film 6 is wound up with the wind-up shafts 12.

A laser beam emitted from a high output semiconductor laser 101 is irradiated into an interference type optical shutter 105 by a first optical system 103 as a wide laser beam along a predetermined direction which intersects with an emitted direction of the laser beam, and also a voltage which mates with the images to be recorded on the recording medium 3 is selectively applied to the electrode pairs of the interference type optical shutter 105, thus the laser beam being input into the interference type optical shutter 105 is optically modulated by an electro-mechanical operation of a flexible thin film to thus irradiate onto the recording medium 3 via a second optical system 107. Accordingly, the image recording apparatus with high reliability, which is able to record the image on the recording medium in the heat mode at high speed by using the high power laser, can be provided.

An optical shutter is provided in the middle of a triopical path of the recording laser. Before a recording operation of data such as the images and the characters, the optical shutter is closed and also a recording laser light is outputted from the LD at a predetermined output rate. Then, immediately before the recording start of the data, the output of the recording laser is interrupted and also the optical shutter is opened, and then the recording of the data is started. Accordingly, there can be provided the image recording apparatus which is able to set the recording laser into its stabilized output state to record immediately after the recording start and to prevent generation of the irregularity of the images, the unevenness of the line width, etc.

It is one objective of the present invention to precisely bring into contact with a recording drum or an image receiving sheet a adhesive roller that can remove dust therefrom, so as to prevent recording failures that occur because of dust that interferes with the proper adhesion of image receiving sheets and toner sheets. According to the invention, a recording apparatus comprises: a recording drum, to which an image receiving sheet is secured; a recording head; a step portion, which is provided on the recording drum to avoid an adverse affect resulting from the thickness of the image receiving sheet; and a adhesive roller, which has a stepped portion corresponding to the step portion on the recording drum and which is located near the recording drum for cleaning the surface of the recording drum and the surface of an image receiving sheet that is secured to the recording drum.
摘要:
A donor sheet having at least a thin image-forming film on a support is brought into a superposed relationship with an image-receiving material having an image-receiving layer provided on a support either directly or with at least one cushion layer interposed in such a way that the thin film faces the image-receiving layer, and thermal energy is applied imagewise onto the donor sheet, which is then peeled from the image-receiving material to form an image on the latter. Donor sheets having a plurality of peelable thin films are combined selectively with different image-forming materials to insure that at least operations selected from among color image formation, mask image formation, platemaking and filter preparation are possible.
