ABSTRACT:
An image recording apparatus which produces an image on a photosensitive recoding medium through a light shieldable mask image carried on a light transmissive member. The apparatus comprises; a mask image forming means provided at a mask image forming zone for forming the light shieldable mask on the light transmissive member; exposure means for exposing the photosensitive recording medium to light through the light transmissive member carrying the mask in an exposure zone for forming a latent image corresponding to the mask image on the photosensitive recording medium, the mask image forming zone being identical with the exposure zone; developing means for developing the latent image into a visible image on the photosensitive recording medium; and, a holding means for selectively holding portions of the light transmissive member extending outside of the exposure zone and maintaining the light transmissive member in the exposure zone during the mask image formation and during the exposure.
