Abstract
The present invention provides an apparatus for recording an image on a photosensitive material, wherein a recording drum 2 is enclosed with an enclosure 10 in which an opening 12 is provided in the direction of movement of a recording head 6. The opening 12 is covered with a light shield member 14 and the light shield member 14 is wound by winding shafts 24 and 26 at its both ends. To the light shield member 14 there is provided a through hole 16, into which an image forming lens 18 of the recording head 6 is inserted. Thus the recording head 6 is allowed to be movable and light shielding is effected only by the small-sized enclosure 10.
