ABSTRACT:
An imaging device includes a separating unit for separating individual sheets of an original document. The separating unit feeds such individual sheets to a reading unit which can read images on a document. To ensure stable operation of both the separating unit and the reading unit, the separating unit is provided with a dedicated separating motor for driving the elements therein, and the reading unit is provided with a dedicated reading motor for driving the elements therein. Moreover, a first transporting roller in the separating unit has a rotating speed which is equal to or greater than a rotating speed of a second transporting roller provided in the reading unit, to thereby ensure stable feeding of the original document sheet from the separating unit to the reading unit. This structure ensures that any fluctuations in the driving elements of the separating unit will not adversely affect any driving elements in the reading unit.
