A contact member makes contact with a surface of an image carrier belt to form a transfer nip. A guiding member guides a recording medium fed by a feeding unit to a guide target point on an upstream side of an entering point of the transfer nip on the surface of the image carrier belt in a moving direction of the image carrier belt. The guiding member is arranged at a position satisfying 100 [mum]>|L-VtxL/Vp|, where L is distance from the entering point to the guide target point on the image carrier belt, Vp is moving speed of the recording medium, and Vt is surface moving speed of the image carrier belt
