A sheet material conveying device being capable of conveying a folded sheet material that is discharged from an image forming apparatus for forming an image on a sheet material, include: a first conveying path for discharging the folded sheet as it is; a second conveying path branching out from the first conveying path a third conveying path, which branches out from the second conveying path and is connected with the first conveying path, for conveying the sheet material in an opposite direction to a conveying direction of the sheet material in the second conveying path; first switching means for selectively guiding the sheet material to either the first conveying path or the second conveying path; and second switching means for guiding the sheet material guided to the second conveying path to the third conveying path.
摘要:
A sheet interval, serving as the distance between conveyed recording materials, is properly controlled based on a kind of a recording material and any one of a printing ratio, an adhesion amount of toner, and the presence or absence of graphic data, thus allowing printing at throughput suitable for, for example, the kind of the recording material and the printing ratio without changing an image forming condition such that image quality does not vary.

An image forming apparatus having a sorter, includes a plurality of bins for accommodating sheet materials, the bin each having sheet material sheet inlet portion, a discharging device movable along the inlet portions of the bins to discharge the sheet material to selected one of the bins, a sheet material accommodating tray other than the bins to accommodate the sheet materials, a guiding device switchable to direct the sheet material selectively to the bin or to the sheet material accommodating tray, and a device for switching the guiding device to direct the sheet material to the discharging device when the discharging device is at a position for discharging the sheet material to the bin, and the sheet material to the accommodating device when the discharging device is not at the position.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus usable with a process cartridge detachably mountable thereto. The process cartridge includes a main cartridge containing a photosensitive member and process means as a unit. A subordinate process cartridge is detachably mountable to the main cartridge. The subordinate cartridge includes at least a developing device which is different from the developing device contained in the main cartridge so that a multi-color image can be formed if desired. The photosensitive member is used both for the main process cartridge and the subordinate cartridge.
