Abstract
A microfilm reader printer has a reader unit which projects a microfilm image onto a screen and a printer unit which reproduces copies of the microfilm image. The printer unit includes an optical device for forming the electrostatic image on a photoreceptor by exposing the microfilm image onto the photoreceptor and a developing device for visualizing the electrostatic latent image formed on the photoreceptor. The developing device has a developing unit for achieving reversal development. The photoreceptor receives a uniformly recharging process by a recharging unit and an overall exposure by an exposure unit. Then, the developed image is removed and the latent image is reversely developed again by the developing unit. A positive copy may be reproduced from both positive and negative types of a microfilm by selectively operating the recharging unit, exposure unit and developing unit.
