LONG PHOTOSENSITIVE MATERIAL HAVING SPLICED PORTION, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS OR IMAGE FORMING METHOD USING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a long photosensitive material causing no image degradation and having increased yield in a manufacturing stage even when a plurality of photosensitive materials are spliced using a splice tape or the like. SOLUTION: The long photosensitive material obtained by splicing a plurality of long image forming photosensitive materials to each other in the lengthwise direction is provided with at least one information recording medium in such a way that the medium is read in a non-contact state, wherein the information recording medium stores positional information on the spliced portions.
