Abstract
An image scanning apparatus comprises a recording material supporting member for supporting a recording material in a straightly moveable manner, and an endlessly moveable member positioned close to the recording material supported on the supporting member for movement along straight lines parallel to the recording material at an angle with respect to the movement direction of the recording material. The recording material supporting member is moved at a velocity approximately equal to the velocity component of the endlessly moveable member in the movement direction of the recording material so that the recording material is two-dimensionally scanned by light. The endlessly moveable member is provided with a photodetector and/or a light source. When the apparatus is used for image read-out, the endlessly moveable member is provided with a single light source and a plurality of light receiving elements positioned around the light source.
