PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a paper conveying device capable of preventing generation of hitting sound by spring of a rear end of paper by attaining a smooth conveying passage with no level difference and attaining quietness by sound-shielding effect by a guide member. SOLUTION: The paper conveying device is provided with a paper feeding cassette 1 detachable relative to an image forming device body 2; and a paper feeding means for feeding the paper P loaded/stored in the paper feeding cassette 1 toward the body conveying passage 13 by every one sheet. The guide member 17 for guiding the paper P fed out from the paper feeding cassette 1 by the paper feeding means along the body conveying passage 13 is vertically movably provided on the paper feeding cassette 1, and the guide member 17 is vertically moved interlocked with detachment action of the paper feeding cassette 1. At attachment of the paper feeding cassette 1, the guide member 17 is projected above an upper surface of an outer wall of the paper feeding cassette 1, and at drawing out of the paper feeding cassette 1, the guide member 17 is positioned below the upper surface of the outer wall of the paper feeding cassette 1.
