An electrostatic recording apparatus includes an endless belt of dielectric material which is supported by a plurality of rollers to move along a predetermined path. A charger is provided to uniformly charge both sides of the belt in opposite polarities. A thermal printhead is provided at one side of the belt to apply a heat pattern in accordance with an image signal to have the charge selectively discharged on either side to define an electrostatic latent image. A developing unit is provided at the opposite side of the belt for developing the latent image by applying toner thereto. Such an arrangement in which the thermal printhead and the developing unit are provided opposite sides with respect to the belt is particularly advantageous.
