ABSTRACT:
A feeding device for feeding a recording medium in a feed direction, including: a drive roller having an annular recess; and a driven roller rotatably held and positioned such that a radially outer end portion of the driven roller is positioned within the annular recess of the drive roller. The driven roller is displaceable away from the drive roller, so that the recording medium is fed to pass between the drive and driven rollers, with the recording medium being gripped by the radially outer end portion of the driven roller and the radially outer end portion of the drive roller. The feeding device further includes an overlap-amount limiter including a contact portion which is positioned within the annular recess and which is, during absence of the recording medium between the drive and driven rollers, held in contact at its surface with the radially outer end portion of the driven roller, for thereby limiting an overlap amount by which the radially outer end portion of the driven roller overlaps with the radially outer end portion of the drive roller.
