ABSTRACT:
A photosensitive material developing apparatus has a first area for supplying a developer to the exposed surface of an imagewise light-exposed photosensitive material, and a second area positioned on the downstream side of the first area in the direction in which the photosensitive material is transported, and adapted to develop the photosensitive material. The apparatus is provided with a wire bar having a wire wound on the outer peripheral portion thereof for the purpose of removing a part of the developer supplied to the exposed surface of the photosensitive material before development is practically commenced and of allowing only a predetermined amount of developer to remain on the exposed surface. The apparatus is further provided with a tray for collecting the removed developer, and a pump for delivering the collected developer to the first area so as to be reused. Accordingly, it is possible to eliminate the fear of the photosensitive material being processed by the fatigued developer, and reduce the amount of consumption of the disposable developer.
