In an image transferring apparatus of the invention, a relay unit, which is provided in a main body frame and includes a conveyance switching mechanism to eject a sheet on which an image is fixed by a fixing section to a sheet ejection section or to switch back the sheet in the middle of ejection, can be pulled out, and a automatic duplex unit to guide the switched back sheet to an image forming section is mounted to the main body frame to be capable of being detached. An intermediate unit to guide the sheet switched back by the relay unit, together with the fixing section, is fixed and placed in the main body frame. The intermediate unit is provided with a guide member to be capable of being opened and closed between a guide position for the switched back sheet and an open position opposite to the guide position. The guide member always receives a spring force toward the open position, and when the automatic duplex unit is mounted to the main body frame, the guide member is moved to the guide position by contact with a pressing body of the automatic duplex unit side, and when the automatic duplex unit is detached from the main body frame, the guide member is opened to the open position by the spring force.

According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes a document table, a document feeder, an opening sensor, an image reading unit, an operation unit, a first memory, a second memory, and a control unit. An original is placed on the document table. The document feeder can open and close an upper part of the document table and conveys the original. The opening sensor detects whether the document feeder opens the document table. The operation unit receives the input of information indicating processing content for the image data. The first memory stores first configuration. The second memory stores second configuration corresponding to the information input to the operation unit. The control unit changes, if the opening sensor detects the opening of the document table, the second configuration stored in the second memory to the first configuration.

To provide, in an image forming apparatus in which a part of a sheet conveying path for reversing a sheet is formed as a unit to be extractable to the outside of the apparatus, a technique for preventing damage to the sheet involved in extracting operation for the extractable unit. In an image forming apparatus that reverses a sheet conveyed in a first conveying direction for leading the sheet to a predetermined discharge tray side by switching back the sheet in a second conveying direction for leading the sheet into a reversing and conveying path, if a sheet is simultaneously detected by both a first sensor that detects a sheet present in an intermediate conveying unit and a second sensor that detects a sheet present in another sheet conveying unit adjacent to an upstream side in the second conveying direction of the intermediate conveying unit, it is determined that the sheet is present across a boundary between the intermediate conveying unit and the other sheet conveying unit.

An interlock switch is switched according to the movement of a relay reversal unit rather than the movement of a front cover. The relay reversal unit is connected to a driver substrate by a drawer connector. The change-over of the interlock switch according to the movement of the relay reversal unit is turned off when margin time elapses after a cover detection switch is turned off.

According to one embodiment, an image forming apparatus includes a paper feeding section, a conveying section, an image forming section, and a display section. The paper feeding section feeds a set sheet. The conveying section conveys the sheet fed from the paper feeding section. The image forming section forms an image on the sheet conveyed by the conveying section. The display section displays sheet set guidance corresponding to a type of the sheet set in the paper feeding section.
摘要:
To provide an image forming apparatus that can highly accurately position and convey, even if an inter-sheet distance of sheets to be conveyed is reduced, the sheets from registration rollers to a transfer position when a toner image on an image bearing member moving at process speed is transferred onto the sheet in the transfer position. A sheet fed from a paper feeding cassette by a pulse-motor driven paper feeding roller is conveyed to pulse-motor driven registration rollers by pulse-motor driven conveying rollers. When the sheet is conveyed to the transfer position according to restart of the registration rollers, the sheet is conveyed by the registration rollers at sheet conveying speed different from the process speed before the leading end of the sheet reaches the transfer position and is conveyed at the process speed after that.
