Abstract
A printing or recording apparatus wherein a recording head is detachably mountable to the printing apparatus. The head is movable when mounted in the apparatus along a line on recording paper. The recording head includes an image bearing member. The image bearing member carries a developed image which is provided by forming an electrostatic latent image thereon and developing the latent image. The latent image corresponds to the information to be recorded. The recording paper is intermittently advanced. While the recording paper is at rest, the image bearing member rolls on the recording paper along the direction of the line to transfer the developed image onto the recording paper.
