An image forming apparatus includes upstream and downstream transport rollers for transporting a recording paper sheet. The upstream transport roller is disposed on the upstream side of a recording head while the downstream transport roller is disposed on the downstream side of the recording head. When forming an image on the first half area of the recording sheet, the upstream transport roller rotates and is responsible for transporting the recording sheet. When forming an image on the second half area of the recording sheet, the downstream transport roller rotates and is responsible for transporting the sheet. This structure provides printing without margins at the leading and trailing edges of the sheet. By adjusting the gap sizes between rollers in each of the upstream and the downstream rollers, the transport speed of the sheet is maintained constant so that high-quality print image can be obtained without uneven density in an image.
