A line-scanning optical printer, which forms an image on a sensitized sheet (25) by projecting a linear light having a given width and length thereto while successively scanning individual lines in the direction of the width, comprises a casing (50) having light shielding properties and including a window portion for radiating the linear light to the outside, a light emitting element (60), which substantially functions as a point light source and is stored in the casing, an optical system (72, 71, 73) for guiding light from the light emitting element (60) as the linear light to the window portion, and a liquid crystal optical shutter (80) attached to the window portion.
