ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for recording an image having a size larger than a television image of one frame including a thermal head having a length which is equal to the longitudinal length of the television image of one frame. An image signal to be recorded is supplied to the thermal head, while a heat sensitive record paper unwound from a paper roll is fed through the thermal head at a constant speed. In this manner an elongated image having a width equal to the longitudinal length of the television image of one frame and a length longer than the lateral length of the television image of one frame is recorded on the heat sensitive record paper. The length of the recorded image is limited only by length of the heat sensitive record paper. In a preferred embodiment, the length of the thermal head is made equal to three times the longitudinal length of the television image of one frame and the image signal to be recorded is stored in a memory. Pixel signals of corresponding scanning lines of three television images of one frame arranged side by side are simultaneously read out and the read out pixel signals are supplied to heater elements of the thermal head.
