Abstract
An image recording apparatus for providing an image on a photosensitive recording medium comprising: a light-transmissive image carrier for carrying a light shielding image thereon; image forming means for forming the light-shielding image on the image carrier based on given image information; exposure means which applies light to the photosensitive recording medium through the image carrier for forming a latent image on the photosensitive recording medium, the photosensitive recording medium being disposed in confronting relation with the image carrier at least at the exposure means; image developing means disposed at downstream side of the exposure means for visualizing the latent image on the photosensitive recording medium; enlarging means connected to the image forming means for providing an enlarged image information to form the light-shielding image having enlarged size on the image carrier with respect to the image information; and reducing means disposed at the exposure means for reducing the latent image to be formed on the photosensitive recording medium with respect to the light-shielding image on the image carrier.
