Image forming apparatus with recording medium support member adjustable in position for desired position of uppermost recording medium on support member

摘要

An apparatus for forming an image on a recording medium is disclosed which includes: a first drive source; a photoreceptor driven for movement by a driving force applied thereto from the first drive source; a support member supporting the recording medium to be fed toward the photoreceptor, displaceable between a receiving position allowing reception of the recording medium on the support member, and a feeding position allowing feeding of the recording medium from the support member toward the photoreceptor; and a drive mechanism operable by a driving force applied thereto from the first drive source to displace the support member from the receiving position to the feeding position.
