Abstract:
1. A device for recording an image onto electronic paper, comprising: an image support body that supports a latent image, the image support body including a photoreceptor, the image support body configured to form the latent image by irradiating laser light to the photoreceptor; an opposing member that faces the image support body; a supply section that supplies electronic paper in a gap between the image support body and the opposing member, the electronic paper having charged color particles and being used for displaying an image as a result of the charged color particles migrating in a thickness direction; a voltage-applying section that applies a voltage to the opposing member, where an electric field is generated along the thickness direction in the gap, and the charged color particles are caused to migrate in the thickness direction, where an image corresponding to the latent image is displayed on the electronic paper; and a voltage control section that controls the voltage applied to the opposing member so that the value of the voltage varies together with time.
