Abstract
An electronic print board which includes driving and support rollers rotatably mounted on a frame, an endless belt trained over the rollers, and a writing medium having a flat writing surface, wrapped around the rollers on the endless belt so as to substantially entirely surround the belt to thereby form an endless band-shaped screen. Fixing mediums are provided on the rear surface of the writing medium and the belt to removably mount the writing medium on the belt. A readout sensor receives light reflected from a picture image on the writing medium to provide a readout picture image to a recorder which records the picture image on recording paper. The exposed surface of the writing medium may be erasably written upon by, for example, a felt pen so that the writing medium may be repeatedly reused and easily detached and replaced when worn.
