Abstract
A recording device capable of performing recording of information at any desired position on the recording medium with extreme easiness, which comprises an original mounting device to mount thereon an image original to be reproduced, a detecting device to detect a position of the original on the original mounting device, and a control device to control the recording position of the recording information onto the recording medium in response to the position of the original detected by the detecting device.
Claims20
A recording device, comprising:
- (a) image original mounting means for mounting an image original to be reproduced;
- (b) information reading means to read image original information by scanning the image original on said image original mounting means by a moving member which moves relative to said image original mounting means;
- (c) recording means to record the image original information read by said information reading means onto a recording medium;
- (d) detecting means to detect a forward end position of the image original relative to the scanning direction of the image original by said information reading means, and to form a detection signal;
- and
- (e) control means to control, in response to the detection signal formed by said detecting means, commencement of recording of said image original information onto said recording medium by said recording means.
A recording device, comprising:
- (a) image original mounting means to mount thereon an image original;
- (b) image original pressing means to press the image original mounted on said image original mounting means thereonto;
- (c) a light member provided on said image original pressing means at a portion opposite to said image original mounting means, said light member being so constructed that it has a different light absorption from that of the image original;
- (d) information reading means to read out image element information from the image original mounted on said image original mounting means;
- (e) moving means to relatively move said image original and said information reading means;
- (f) recording means to record the image element information read out by said information reading means onto a recording medium;
- (g) signal forming means to form a notifying signal which notifies the position of the image original;
- and
- (h) control means to control the recording positions of the image element information onto the recording medium by said recording means on the basis of said notifying signal.
A recording device, comprising:
- (a) image original mounting means to mount thereon an image orignial;
- (b) information reading means to read information in the image original by scanning the image original on said image original mounting means;
- (c) recording means to record the information read by said information reading means onto a recording member;
- (d) instructing means to instruct a region on the image original to be recorded on said recording member out of a plurality of regions on said image original;
- and
- (e) control means to control a position of a marginal space to be provided on said recording member in accordance with the instruction from said instructing means.
A recording device, comprising:
- (a) information forming means to form visible information on a recording member;
- (b) signal forming means to form an instruction signal to instruct information of the visible information on said recording member;
- (c) first marginal space forming means to provide a marginal space at one end of said recording member;
- (d) second marginal space forming means to provide a marginal space at another end of said recording member opposite to said one end;
- and
- (e) selecting means to alternately select said first marginal space forming means and second marginal space forming means each time the instruction signal is led out of said signal forming means.
A recording device, comprising:
- (a) information means to form visible informations on a recording member;
- (b) first marginal space means to provide a marginal space at one end of said recording member in the moving direction thereof;
- (c) second marginal space means to provide a marginal space at one end part of said recording member in the direction perpendicular to the moving direction thereof;
- (d) signal forming means to form a signal which indicates a size of said recording member;
- and
- (e) selecting means to select either said first marginal space means or second marginal space means in accordance with said size signal.
A recording device, comprising:
- (a) image original mounting means to mount thereon an image original;
- (b) reading means to read information in said image original and to form image element signals;
- (c) detecting means to detect the presence of the image original by an output from said reading means;
- (d) recording means to record information on a recording medium by the image element signals read by said reading means;
- and
- (e) control means to control the information recording by preventing information recording by said recording means when the presence of the image original is not detected by said detecting means.
