<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a double-sided sheet feeder capable of more improving assemblability and maintainability, inexpensively detecting a backing sheet while maintaining detecting accuracy, and besides subsequently adding a backing sheet detecting function to an image forming device having no backing sheet detecting function and performing double-sided printing. <P>SOLUTION: Image detection means 76 detecting whether or not printing on the back surface of recording paper P is finished includes a reflection photosensor. The image detection means 76 is provided in the double-sided sheet feeder 70 detachably mounted to the image forming device. Further, the image detection means 76 doubles as position detection means detecting the trailing end and leading end of the recording paper P as a reversal operation timing signal. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT</p> |
