PRINTING-RECORDING DEVICE

PURPOSE:To make a device compact and improve its efficiency by providing an image receiving paper holding means, and a developing means for transferring an image pattern latent in recording material onto image receiving paper by heating from a heating body to perform developing/fixing. CONSTITUTION:An upper side feed roller 18a and a lower side heating body 18b in a developing means 18 are spaced from each other by fixed distance but driven in such a way as to clamp recording material 13 and image receiving paper 15 from the upper and lower sides when both 13, 15 are overlapped with each other in the state of the starting end side of the image receiving paper 15 coinciding with the starting end side of the latent image area of the recording material 13. When the feed roller 18a and the heating body 18b are rotated synchronously, the recording material 13 and the image receiving paper 15 are sent in the direction of a paper discharge roller 19 while being heated, but at this time, an image pattern latent in the recording material 13 is transferred to the image receiving paper 15 by heating and also developed/fixed thereon. Printing-recording can be thereby performed only by a photographic and thermal sensitizing system so as to make printing-recording work efficient as well as attaining the compactness and lightness of a device.
