Abstract
An image recording apparatus has an array light source having a plurality of light-emitting elements arrayed in a predetermined density; a photosensitive member exposed to light beams emitted from the plural light-emitting elements so that images are recorded by fixing a traveling path of the light beams from the plural light-emitting elements to the photosensitive member and by moving the photosensitive member relative to the array light source; a beam-converging unit which intercrosses a bundle of the light beams emitted from the light-emitting elements onto a beam-conversion point; and an focusing unit disposed between the beam-converging unit and the photosensitive member, which images the light beams emitted from the plural of light-emitting elements and intercrossed by the beam-converging unit onto the photosensitive member.
