ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for recording color images of an original in color including three photosensitive drums capable of rotating in the normal direction and in the reverse direction. Each photosensitive drum has an outer peripheral surface of an area and an axial length large enough to accommodate an image of the original of a maximum size to which one of three color components of an optical image of the original obtained by color separation is written and developed into toner image of one of yellow, magenta and cyan. When the photosensitive drums are rotated in the normal direction, the three color components are written and developed; when the photosensitive drums are rotated in the reverse direction, a sheet of transfer material is fed at the same velocity as the peripheral velocity of the drums in the same direction as the direction of rotation of the drums and successively brought into contact with the photosensitive drums in their transfer-printing positions, to produce a color image of the original. Each photosensitive drum reverses the direction of its rotation in timed relation to the feeding of the sheet of support material in such a manner that the trailing end of the toner image on each photosensitive drum coincides with the leading end of the sheet of support material.
