An automatic document feeder (300) of an image forming apparatus capable of improving a duplex scanning or printing (copying) efficiency includes a single scan path (110) having a document admission passage (112) to admit a document to a document scanning part (200) and a document discharge passage (114) to discharge the scanned document, a duplex scan path (120) having a first document reversing and waiting passage (121) diverged separately from the document discharge passage (114) on the single scan path (110) at the rear of the document scanning part (200) to reverse the document, one surface of which is scanned, and admit the reversed document again to the document scanning part (200), and a document re-reversing path (130) having a second document reversing and waiting passage (131) diverged separately from the document discharge passage (114) on the single scan path (110) at the rear of the document scanning part (200) to reverse the document, both surfaces of which are scanned, again and send the re-reversed document to the document discharge passage (114). |
