Abstract:
A sheet supply device includes registration rollers for feeding a print sheet to a print unit, feed rollers for feeding a print sheet to the registration rollers, and a controller for controlling the registration rollers and the feed rollers. The controller starts first rotation of the feed rollers to contact a leading edge of the print sheet to the registration rollers to form a slack with a predetermined slack amount, stops the first rotation after the slack is formed, starts rotation of the registration rollers after the first rotation is stopped to reduce a slack amount of the slack, and starts second rotation of the feed rollers after the rotation of the registration rollers is started so as to make the slack remained until a trailing edge of the print sheet passes through the feed rollers. According to the sheet supply device, noises during feeding print sheets can be reduced.
