An optical information recording medium including a first and second information layers is provided with an area where only the first information layer, which is provided nearer a substrate, exists, and initialization using a laser beam is started from this area. In an area where the second information layer exists, the first information layer is initialized after the second information layer is initialized. Alternatively, the first and second information layers are initialized at the same time by a flash light with adjusted emission time, emission energy, and the like. The first information layer is initialized after the second information layer is initialized by radiating a plurality of flash lights.
