Abstract
An image recording apparatus for recording an image on a record sheet by projecting the image onto an image recorder through a projection lens includes an image position detecting device for detecting position of the image to be projected on the image recorder and a reflecting mirror for correction of the image position for shifting an optical axis of light incident on the image recorder in the direction orthogonal to the direction of feeding a recording material. A shift of the reflecting mirror for correction of the image position and a time to feed the recording material to the image recorder are controlled in response to the result of detection by the image position detecting device. This makes it possible to control a position where the image is to be formed in both the recording material feeding direction and the orthogonal direction thereto.
