ABSTRACT:
A photosensitive member in the form of a belt moves along an arcuate path, and during such movement, it is slitwise exposed to a light image of an original. A developing step and a transfer step, which transfers a visual image obtained by the developing step onto a transfer medium, are repeated a number of times N.sub.T, which is equal to or greater than two, upon an electrostatic latent image formed on the photosensitive member. The photosensitive member includes a number of segments N.sub.S, equal to or greater than one, each of which defines an image forming region. In an area where it is exposed, the photosensitive member assumes a planar configuration, and throughout the exposure, the slitwise exposure location moves through the area at a uniform rate in the same direction as the direction of movement of the photosensitive member.
