ABSTRACT:
In an image recording apparatus, a feed roller pair including a drive roller and a pinch roller is disposed on an upstream side of a sheet feed direction from an image recording unit. The pinch roller is rotatably supported in a pinch roller holder so as to press in contact with drive roller with a specified pressure. A holder support member is integrally formed with an inside frame constituting a housing of the apparatus. Rolling bearings are interposed between the pinch roller holder and the holder support member. The pinch roller holder is supported in the holder support member so as to roll in a direction where a recording sheet is fed.
