ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a paper feed mechanism in a recording apparatus which paper feed mechanism permits the reduction in size of the entire apparatus. The paper feed mechanism comprises a main roller 3 which is rotated in both forward and reverse directions for conveying sheets of paper P from a paper receptacle portion to a recording portion, a paper separating and feeding member 20 which comes into pressure contact with the main roller 3 to separate and feed the sheets of paper P accommodated in the paper receptacle portion, and a stop member 30 which comes into pressure contact with the main roller 3 on a downstream side with respect to the paper separating and feeding member 20 in the paper conveyance direction to forcibly stop the feed of the sheets P being fed continuously. By the paper feed mechanism of such a construction, the plural sheets of paper stacked in the paper receptacle portion are separated one by one and fed to the recording portion.
