ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an image forming apparatus such as a laser printer, a copying machine, or the like, for forming an image onto recording paper. The image forming apparatus includes a photoreceptor for rotationally displacing, at a fixed speed, a toner image formed on a surface of the photoreceptor in accordance with image information; feed rolls for feeding, at a fixed speed, recording paper from selected one of a plurality of paper supply portions to a transfer initiation position through corresponding one of recording paper feed paths; a timer which starts counting for each of the paper supply portions from a point of time when feeding of recording paper by the feed rolls is started; a stopping unit for making the feed rolls stop when the timer completes counting of a predetermined time; and a feed roll drive unit for making rotation of the feed rolls restart in response to initiation of arrival of image information. According to the image forming apparatus, a position of image transfer onto the recording paper can be adjusted without using any resist rolls conventionally used to thereby miniaturize the apparatus.
