    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes an image forming device, an apparatus body, a cap, and an operation part. The image forming device includes an image forming face configured to face a recording medium. The image forming device is configured to form an image on the recording medium. The apparatus body is configured to support the image forming device. The cap is movable relative to the apparatus body between a capping position to cap the image forming face and a retracted position to be retracted from the image forming face. The operation part is configured to move the cap from the capping position to the retracted position. The operation part is not operable by a force from an object on which the apparatus body is placed.

    摘要: An automatic document feeding device includes a conveyance unit, an image reading unit, a color reference member, a moving assembly, and a drive source. The conveyance unit conveys a document to an image reading position. The image reading unit reads an image of the document. The color reference member faces the image reading unit and includes a white reference face to correct shading. The moving assembly relatively moves the image reading unit and the color reference member. The movement regulator regulates a relative movement of the image reading unit and the color reference member by the moving assembly. The drive source includes a common rotation output shaft to drive the conveyance unit and the moving assembly. The drive source changes the rotation output shaft from a forward rotation direction to a reverse rotation direction to reversely rotate the rotation output shaft to a set reverse rotation angle set in advance, according to a condition of conveyance of the document by the conveyance unit. In a rotation transmission route from the rotation output shaft to the moving assembly, the movement regulator is disposed in a first reverse rotation drive region from when a rotation direction of the rotation output shaft is changed to the reverse rotation direction to when a rotation angle of the rotation output shaft after the change in the reverse rotation direction reaches the set revere rotation angle. The moving assembly relatively moves the image reading unit and the color reference member in a second reverse rotation drive region where the rotation output shaft is rotated in the reverse rotation direction beyond the set reverse rotation angle.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus, movable to form an image on a recording medium, includes an image forming device, an apparatus body, and a cap. The image forming device includes an image forming face that is configured to face the recording medium. The image forming device is configured to form the image on the recording medium. The apparatus body is configured to support the image forming device. The cap is movable relative to the apparatus body between a capping position to cover the image forming face and a retracted position to be retracted from the image forming face. The retracted position is outside an area in which the image forming face is extended in a scanning direction, as viewed in a normal direction of the image forming face.
