Abstract

A hand recording apparatus for recording images on a recording medium by manual operation has an encode plate and a photosensor for detecting the movement of the apparatus body, a thermal head driven so as to record an image conforming to an image signal on the recording medium correspondingly to the movement of the apparatus body detected by the encode plate and the photosensor, and a driver for displacing the thermal head to a recording position in response to the contact of the apparatus body with the recording medium.
