A recording head for use in a facsimile communication system comprises a plurality of recording elements each having an effective recording area surrounded by an ineffective area. The recording elements are arranged on a plane in a step-like configuration in which the elements are displaced both longitudinally and transversely with respect to another such that there is a spacing between the effective areas of the recording elements in the longitudinal direction and there is no spacing between them in the transverse direction. The recording head is so oriented that the longitudinal direction corresponds to the direction of line scan.
