An apparatus includes: an image forming unit having a photosensitive drum; a motor configured to rotate forwardly and reversely; a discharging roller to which a driving force is transferred from the motor; an one way clutch configured to transfer the driving force to the photosensitive drum or block a transfer of the driving force; a returning roller returning the recording sheet drawn by the discharging roller; a rotation direction converting mechanism transmitting the driving force to the returning roller to rotate the returning roller in a certain direction; and a time lag mechanism including engaging portions with a gap therebetween, when the rotation direction of the motor being switched, each of the engaging portions being engaged with each other after a predetermined time, thereby delaying the transfer of the driving force from the motor to the returning roller. |
