ABSTRACT:
A document fed from a document tray to a first transport path is guided to a document inverting unit to invert a transport direction of the document. Subsequently, the document is transported to an image reader unit along a second transport path for image data reading on the opposite side of the document opposite to a side facing upward when set on the document tray. Then, the document is guided to the document inverting unit again via a fourth transport path intersecting a third transport path at a first intersecting point to invert the transport direction of the document again. Thereafter, the document is transported to the image reading unit again via the second transport path for image data reading on the one side of the document. The document is discharged onto a discharge tray via the third transport path with the one side facing downward.
