ABSTRACT:
An image reading apparatus includes a transport path for transporting an original from an original tray to a reading position; a reading device for reading the original at a reading position; a determining device for determining whether the original includes a black and white image or color image; a circulating path for returning the original to the reading position without turning over the original; a discharge path for guiding the original from the reading position to a discharge tray; and selection means for selecting one of the circulating path and the discharge path. The image reading apparatus reads the same side of the original fed from the circulating path again according to a result of the determining device.
