Image recording apparatus and method.

摘要

Original documents are placed sequentially on a document platen (12) and their images reduced by a lens (42) and applied to sequential areas of a photoconductor surface (16). Developed reduced size images are transferred to a copy sheet at a transfer station (25) and, after fusing, the copy sheet is returned to the transfer station to receive a subsequent reduced size image in a sequential area. The images form a matrix on one side of the copy sheet and duplexing allows recordal of two matrixes on a single copy sheet.
