ABSTRACT:
An exposure device used in an image forming apparatus for exposing a photosensitive recording medium carrying microcapsules on one surface thereof to color image lights produced in accordance with color image data representing an original image to form a latent image corresponding to the original image, includes a fiber optics tube (FOT) having an optical fiber array serving an exposing surface for producing the color image lights in accordance with the color image data and selectively exposing the photosensitive recording medium to the color image lights to form the latent image on the photosensitive recording medium, the exposing surface being disposed in such a manner as to confront the other surface of the photosensitive recording medium, a FOT driving circuit for driving the FOT, and a control unit for controlling the FOT driving circuit so that the color image lights are selectively produced in accordance with the image data inputted thereto and the color image lights thus produced are irradiated to the photosensitive recording medium.
