Abstract
An image scanning reading and recording apparatus delivers an original bearing an image to a reading position, scans the original with a first light beam to read the image to produce image information, processes the image information according to prescribed image recording conditions to produce an image signal, modulates a second light beam with the image signal to produce a halftone dot signal, and applies the halftone dot signal to a photo-sensitive medium to record the image thereon. An original feeding mechanism is coupled to the image scanning reading and recording apparatus. The image scanning reading and recording apparatus includes a control unit connectable to an additional memory for storing image recording conditions for originals stored in the original feeding mechanism. The orginal feeding mechanism successively feeds the originals to the image scanning reading and recording apparatus, and identifies the originals as they are fed. The contol unit selects those of the image recording conditions stored in the additional memory which correspond to the orginal identified by the identifying means and records the image on the photosensitive medium according to the selected i…
