ABSTRACT:
A sheet feeder that has a first paper guide for automatic paper feeding built into a second paper guide used for manual paper feeding. Both of the guides recess into the tray of the sheet feeder and can be rotated simultaneously into a position perpendicular to the tray. When using non standard sized printable medium the dual guides make it easy to select between automatic and manual sheet loading mode. This increases the reliability of the sheet feeder and, thus, improves the functioning of the image forming apparatus.
