Abstract
An electronic copying machine comprises an optical image forming system for forming an optical image of a remote surface on an image plane, and an image sensor disposed in the image plane and transversely movable in the image plane for scanning the optical image and converting the image into image signals. A scanning area defining device defines the height of the image sensor so as to scan the image plane according to the height of the remote surface. An image printing unit including a printing head is driven according to the image signals for printing an image on paper.
