A paper-like sheet discriminator has reference rollers for detection of a thickness of a paper-like sheet and a detection roller opposing the reference rollers. The paper-like sheet is passed between the reference rollers and the detection rollers and its thickness is detected from a displacement of the lever. Wavelength components less than a specified wavelength are extracted from a signal indicative of a thickness of the paper-like sheet passing through the respective thickness detection sensors and appearance positions on the paper-like sheet are determined at which the extracted wavelength components being less than the specified wavelength and having amplitude either not less than or less than a constant value appear. The thus determined appearance positions are collated with precedently stored appearance positions so as to discriminate genuineness/spuriousness of the paper-like sheet.

Electrostatic recording head, image recording apparatus, developing

A method and an apparatus for recording an image is disclosed, in which toner is supplied between a conductive recording drum covered with an insulating material and recording electrodes with the forward end thereof with a small gap from the drum and inclined at a great angle upstream of the direction of rotation of the recording drum. A toner carriage force is generated in the toner to flow out downstream by rotation of the recording drum. A permanent magnet is arranged in the recording drum to form a toner chain inclined at a great angle downstream of the recording drum from the forward end of the recording electrodes. The component of the magnetic force of the magnet in the direction of drum movement is balanced with the toner carriage force. Upon application of a recording voltage to the recording electrodes under this condition, the toner of the most downstream toner chain in contact with the drum surface develops a force of adhesion to the recording drum so that the drum rotates downstream with the toner attached thereon, thus forming an image due to the toner on the recording drum.
