Composite information recording device

Abstract

A composite information recording device comprising a first electrostatic image forming means adapted to scan the image of an original on a copy board and to form the original image as a latent image on an image forming member, a second electrostatic image forming means adapted to form the image of an information supplied externally in the form of an electric signal as a latent image on the image forming member, and original position appointing means movable along the side edge of the copy board in the image scanning direction. The device further comprises means for switching the recording mode from one mode in which the latent image is formed by one of the latent image forming means to another mode in which the latent image is formed by the other latent image forming means when the original position appointing means provides its output, masking position appointing means movable along the side edge of the copy board perpendicular to the direction of scanning of the image, and controlling means adapted to control the second electrostatic latent image forming means in accordance with the masking signals delivered by the masking position appointing means during the formation of the electrostatic latent image by the first electrostatic latent image forming means.
