Electrostatic recording apparatus

摘要

An electrostatic recording apparatus for recording, developing and fixing an image on a sheet of recording paper, comprises an electrostatic recording head and a roller. Transport structure is located at the down stream side of the electrostatic recording head with respect to a direction of feed of the sheet of recording paper. A control rotates the roller when a leading edge of the sheet of recording paper is sandwiched between the electrostatic recording head and the roller and stops rotation of the roller during a period of time after the leading edge of the sheet of recording paper which has passed through the electrostatic recording head and the roller has started being transported by the transport structure and before the trailing edge has passed between the electrostatic recording head and the roller, the roller being rotatable in response to feeding of the sheet after the roller has ceased to be driven.
