Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a laser scanning unit, an upper guide member, a plurality of reinforcing ribs, and an air blower. The upper guide member is provided below the laser scanning unit and forms an upper guide surface of a sheet conveyance path extending in a direction along a bottom surface of the laser scanning unit. The plurality of reinforcing ribs are provided on an upper surface of the upper guide member and extend in a predetermined direction. The air blower is configured to send air to a space between the plurality of adjacent reinforcing ribs.
