The prefix 'im' means 'not'.
Confusion arises from the assimilation of this old definition of im-, into the present English definition meaning not. Il-, im- and ir- are all presently defined as auxiliary prefixes of in-.
il- is used for words beginning with L; illegal.
im- is used for words beginning with B, P or M; imbalance, impenetrable and immortal.
ir- is used for words beginning with R; irregular.
