Abstract
An image printing apparatus includes first and second write-width determining circuits. The first write-width determining circuit determines a first write-width in a first direction of the paper by using paper size information for the paper and a first counted value obtained by counting the write clock signal. The second write-width determining circuit determines a second write-width in a second direction of the paper by using the paper size information and a second counted value obtained by counting a number of the recording performed for every scanning line, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction and corresponding to a direction of a paper transportation. The image signal supplied to a light source is recorded on an area of a recording medium corresponding to an area on the paper defined by the first and second write widths.
