Abstract
An image recording apparatus for recording an image on an elongated continuous form photosensitive recording medium fed along a recording medium feeding path is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a setting unit for setting a plural image mode of operation where a plurality of images are recorded sequentially upon a single actuation thereof by a operator, an exposing unit for exposing the photosensitive recording medium to a light image at predetermined time intervals as the photosensitive recording medium is fed past an exposure position, a developing unit disposed downstream of the exposing unit along the recording medium feeding path for developing the exposed photosensitive recording medium, a first recording medium feeding unit for feeding the photosensitive recording medium upstream of the exposure position with respect to the recording medium feeding path, a second recording medium feeding unit for feeding the photosensitive recording medium downstream of the exposure position with respect to the recording medium feeding path, and a controlling unit for controlling the first recording medium feeding unit and the second recording medium feeding unit so that the speed of feeding by the first recording medium feeding unit is faster than the speed of feeding by the second recording medium feeding unit at least during an exposing operation when the plural image mode is set by the setting unit.
