ABSTRACT:
An image transfer apparatus for transferring an image recorded on an image sheet to an image-receiving sheet wherein the image sheet and the image-receiving sheet placed one above the other on a guide plate, together with the guide plate and a cover sheet having one end secured to the guide plate for covering the image sheet and the image-receiving sheet, are transported in one direction along a transporting passage and passed through a transfer station, and are subsequently transported in an opposite direction along the transporting passage and are passed again through the transfer station. The apparatus has a takeup device for drawing out the cover sheet as the guide plate is transported in one direction, and for taking up the cover sheet as the guide plate is transported in the opposite direction. Accordingly, it is unnecessary for the operator to manually cover the image sheet and the image-receiving sheet on the guide plate with the cover sheet prior to transfer or to remove the cover sheet from the guide plate after transfer.
