ABSTRACT:
A magazine containing a roll of recording paper is removably loaded in an image recording apparatus. A sensor for detecting a leading end of the recording paper is provided in the image recording apparatus near a paper outlet of the loaded magazine. The image recording apparatus has a device for calculating a transport amount of the recording paper till the leading end of the recording paper is detected by the sensor. If the calculated transport amount is less than a predetermined value, the leading end of the recording paper is considered to be fogged or stained, so an edge treatment is carried out to cut a certain length by a cutter away from the leading end before the recording paper is fed into an image recording section. The magazine is provided with a memory for recording an open/close history of its lid that is opened and closed to set the recording paper in the magazine. The image recording apparatus reads the open/close history from the memory. If the open/close history indicates that the magazine lid was opened while the magazine was removed from the image recording apparatus, it is judged that the magazine contains a new roll of recording paper, so the edge treatment is carried out even while the transport amount is more than the predetermined value.
