Abstract
An image recording apparatus for recording an image on an image receiving member in cooperation with a photosensitive pressure-sensitive member. The apparatus includes an exposure unit for exposing the photosensitive pressure-sensitive member to an imaging light to form a latent image thereon, a pressure developing unit for pressure developing the latent image and forming a visible image on the image receiving member, and a thermal fixing unit for thermally fixing the visible image formed thereon. To prevent the image-formed surface of the image receiving member from being smeared or damaged, a lamination unit is provided for laminating a film on at least one surface of the image receiving member.
