ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a paper feed apparatus usable in the paper-containing cassette of an image forming system such as an electronic or electrostatic copying machine, a simple printing machine or the like. The paper feed apparatus according to the present invention includes a table on which a stack of cut sheets is supported, a cut-sheet conveying section insertable into a cut-sheet entrance in the image forming system, a paper feed mechanism for feeding the cut sheets from the table one by one, a cut-sheet conveying mechanism in the cut-sheet conveying section for receiving the cut sheet fed from the table and conveying it to a predetermined position in the cut-sheet conveying section wherein the cut sheet is once caused to stop and wait, and a sensor for detecting that the cut sheet has been fed out of the cut-sheet conveying section, so that the cut sheets can automatically be fed from the table to the cut-sheet conveying section one by one at each time that the previous cut sheet has been fed out of the cut-sheet conveying section.
