A multicolor imaging material comprises a substrate, a capsule layer made up of a plurality of heat-meltable microcapsules including color former and a developer material layer. When the laser beams having wavelengths of l1, l2, and l3 are applied to the multicolor imaging material according to the signals corresponding to three primary colors, the heat-meltable microcapsules for individual colors independently generate heat, thereby causing the heat-meltable substance to be melted. This brings about the reaction of the color formers for individual colors with the developer to developer colors, thereby forming a color image comprised of cyan, magenta and yellow.

A multicolor imaging material comprising: a substrate; a capsule layer made up of a plurality of heat-meltable microcapsules, said heat-meltable microcapsules separately containing therein color formers of respective colors capable of forming at least two different colors and infrared absorbents which absorb different wavelengths for the respective colors, said microcapsule having a porous membrane which encloses the color former; and a developer material layer formed on the substrate or coexisted with the microcapsules, said developer material reacting with the color former to produce a color image.
