An image forming apparatus includes: an image forming device; a fixing device; a first feeding path configured to discharge the recording material so that a fixed toner image is directed upwardly; a second feeding path, branching from the first feeding path, configured to discharge the recording material so that the fixed toner image is directed downwardly; a first rotatable member pair, provided in the first feeding path, configured to discharge the recording material; a second rotatable member pair, provided in the second feeding path, configured to discharge the recording material; a first air-blowing mechanism configured to blow air so as to cross the second feeding path when the recording material is discharged using the first feeding path; and a second air-blowing mechanism configured to blow air so as to cross the first feeding path when the recording material is discharged using the second feeding path. |

1. An image forming apparatus comprising:
an image forming device configured to form a toner image on a recording material with a toner containing a parting agent; a fixing device configured to fix the toner image formed on the recording material by said image forming device; a first feeding path configured to discharge the recording material so that the toner image fixed by said fixing device is directed upwardly; a second feeding path, branching from said first feeding path, configured to discharge the recording material so that the toner image fixed by said fixing device is directed downwardly; a first rotatable member pair, provided in said first feeding path, configured to discharge the recording material; a second rotatable member pair, provided in said second feeding path, configured to discharge the recording material; a first air-blowing mechanism configured to blow air so as to cross said second feeding path when the recording material is discharged using said first feeding path; and a second air-blowing mechanism configured to blow air so as to cross said first feeding path when the recording material is discharged using said second feeding path. |
