Abstract
A recording apparatus includes memories for storing full-color image information to be recorded, a recording head for recording an image on a recording medium, and a control unit including a CPU, a counter, a delay circuit, and a head driver. The control unit has a normal paper recording mode for driving the recording head so that an erected image is recorded on the normal recording sheet and a B.P.F. (Back-Print Film) recording mode for driving the recording head so that the same erected image is recorded on the B.P.F. sheet when the image is veined from the back side of the sheet.
Claims17
A recording apparatus including:
- means for storing image information to be recorded;
- means for recording on a recording medium having first and second surfaces, an image stored in said storing means;
- and
- drive control means having a first mode for controlling said recording means so that the image information in said storing means is recorded as an erected image of the stored image information when viewed from the side of the recording medium first surface, and a second mode for controlling said recording means so that the image information in said storing means is recorded as an erected image of the stored image information when viewed from the side of the recording medium second surface.
A recording apparatus including:
- means for storing image information to be recorded;
- recording means, reciprocally and relatively movable between first and second ends of a recording medium, for recording the image information stored in said storing means, the recording medium having first and second surfaces;
- and
- drive control means haivng a first mode for controlling said recording means so that the image information in said storing means is recorded as an erected image of the stored image information when viewed from the side of the recording medium first surface, and a second mode for controlling said recording means so that the image information in said storing means is recorded as an erected image of the stored image information when viewed from the side of the recording medium second surface,
- whereby the erected image is recorded in the first mode when said recording means is moved from the first end to the second end, and a reverse image of the erected image is recorded in the second mode when said recording means is moved from the second end to the first end.
A recording apparatus including:
- storing means for storing image information to be recorded, and color information:
- recording means for recording the image information stored in said storing means on a recording medium in a plurality of colors according to the color information, the recording medium having first and second surfaces;
- and
- drive control means having a first mode for controlling said recording means so that the image information in said storing means is recorded as an erected image of the stored image information when viewed from the side of the recording medium first surface, and a second mode for controlling said recording means is recorded as an erected image of the stored image information when viewed from the side of the recording medium second surface, said drive control means being arranged to drive said recording means to perform recording in accordance with a first color stacking order in the first mode and a second color stacking order in the second mode.
