A paper feeding cassette and an image forming apparatus with the same are provided. The paper feeding cassette includes a stacking portion for stacking sheets of paper thereon, an inclined wall upwardly slanted relative to the stacking portion, a double-feed preventing unit provided on the inclined wall for separating and conveying the sheet conveyed along the inclined wall, and a coil spring installed in the double-feed preventing unit and applying frictional resistance to one side of the sheet to be conveyed. The paper feeding cassette can effectively prevent double-feed of sheets of paper by changing the shape or arrangement of the coil spring. The coil spring is not worn by the repeated printing. In addition, the paper feeding cassette can be easily manufactured by using the coil spring, and manufacturing costs can be reduced.
