Provided is an image processing apparatus configured to perform by itself image erasing and image recording to a thermally reversible recording medium by irradiating it with laser light and heating it, including a laser light emitting unit, a laser light scanning unit, a focal length control unit, and an information setting unit. During image erasing, the focal length control unit performs control to defocus at the position of the thermally reversible recording medium. During image recording, the focal length control unit performs control to be at a focal length from the position of the thermally reversible recording medium. Immediately after image erasing based on image erasing information set by the information setting unit is completed, image recording is performed based on image recording information.

摘要:
A laser rewriting apparatus positioned on one side or the other side of a conveyance path through which a to-be-conveyed object on which a thermoreversible recording medium is affixed is conveyed in a predetermined conveyance direction. The laser rewriting apparatus emits laser light to the thermoreversible recording medium and rewrites an image. The laser writing apparatus includes an image erasing apparatus that emits laser light to the thermoreversible recording medium and erases the image from the thermoreversible recording medium; and an image recording apparatus positioned on the predetermined conveyance direction downstream side of the image erasing apparatus and records a new image by emitting laser light to the thermoreversible recording medium. The image erasing apparatus and the image recording apparatus have the respective laser light emitting parts from which the laser light is emitted at ends on the same side with respect to the predetermined conveyance direction.
