ABSTRACT:
A direct driving mechanism moves, in a direct drive manner, at least one of a sheet, on which an original image to be read is realized, and an image reading system for reading the original image so that the image reading system progressively reads all of the original image accordingly. The image scanning mechanism has an arrangement for reading the original image realized on the sheet either in a first mode of sensing light reflected by the sheet or in a second mode of sensing light transmitted by the sheet. The arrangement includes at least two different kinds of driving mechanisms, each being used for a respective one of the first and second manners. At least one of the two different kinds of driving mechanisms includes the direct driving mechanism.
