ABSTRACT:
An image forming apparatus includes a single support member, an upper body and a lower body. The single support member is positioned between the upper body and lower body and connected at a back lower portion of the lower body. The cumulative weight of the upper body is aligned, to a significant degree, over the location where the support member pushes against the upper body. As a consequence the upper body is conveniently moved away from the lower body when opened, and the gap between the upper body and lower body is free of obstructions so as to facility an operator's ability to perform a maintenance action.
