Image recording system for image recording in response to signals entered from a recording information generating unit

An image recording apparatus comprising:

• first entry means for entering first recording information;
• second entry means for entering second recording information different from the first recording information;
• printing means for reproducing the recording information entered into said first or second means on a recording sheet;
• and
• transmitting means for transmitting said first or second recording information to said printing means,
• said transmitting means transmitting a signal associated with a start of transmission of said first recording information to control the conveyance of the recording sheet when said first recording information is reproduced, and
• said transmitting means controlling a start of transmission of said second recording information in association with the operation of said printing means when said second recording information is reproduced.

An image recording apparatus comprising:

• original image reading means;
• first entry means for entering first recording information;
• second entry means for entering second recording information different from said first recording information;
• printing means for reproducing the recording information entered into said first or second entry means on a recording sheet;
• and
• transmitting means for transmitting said first or second recording information to said printing means,
• said transmitting means transmitting a signal associated with a start of reading of an original image by said original reading means to control the conveyance of the recording sheet when said first recording information is reproduced, and
• said transmitting means controlling a start of transmission of said second recording information in association with the operation of said printing means when said second recording information is reproduced.

An image recording system comprising:

• a first recording information generating unit for transmitting recording information, said unit including means for generating a signal associated with the recording information;
• and
• a recording unit having a recording medium on which an image is formed in response to recording information transmitted by said first recording information generating unit, said recording unit also including means for conveying a recording sheet and for transferring an image formed on the recording medium onto the recording sheet at a predetermined transfer position,
• said recording unit conveying means controlling conveyance of the recording sheet in response to the signal associated with the recording information generated by said first recording information generating unit so that the conveyed recording sheet has a predetermined positional relationship to the image formed on said recording medium.

An image recording system comprising:

• a first recording information generating unit for transmitting recording information, representing an image, in one transmission mode;
• a second recording information generating unit for transmitting recording information, representing an image, in a transmission mode different from the one transmission mode;
• a recording unit for conveying a recording sheet and for recording an image onto the recording sheet,
• said recording unit controlling the conveyance of the recording sheet in association with the transmission of recording information when the recording information from said first recording information generating unit is to be recorded, and controlling the transmission of the recording information in association with the conveyance of the recording sheet when the recording information from said second recording information generating unit is to be recorded.
