ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes a first conveying path on which paper enters between a photosenitive drum and a transfer unit facing the drum and leaves there. A lower unit in an opening/closing unit holds, on the lower side of the first conveying path, a lower resist roller in a resist roller pair, belt conveyor, lower paper discharge roller in a paper discharge roller pair and transfer unit. The lower unit is movable in a direction away from the photosensitive drum so as to open the first paper conveying path. An apparatus body includes a paper storage section having a double function of providing a spacing for allowing the opening/closing motion of the lower unit and storing image-printed paper therein. The apparatus body has a second conveying path connected to the first conveying path and guiding the image-formed paper to the paper storage section so as to allow the image-formed paper to be stored in the paper storage section in a reversed state.
