An image forming apparatus includes a carriage on which a recording head is mounted, a carriage drive mechanism including a motor to reciprocate the carriage, a sheet transport mechanism to transport the sheet in a direction orthogonal to a movement direction of the carriage, a sheet guide member arranged below the recording head and having a guide unit which is opposite to the recording head and on which the sheet passes, a paper loading unit arranged below the recording head and containing the stacked sheet before printing, a first transport path to transport the sheet from the paper loading unit to between the recording head and the sheet guide member while inverting the sheet, a second transport path to transport the sheet from the paper loading unit to a temporal containing unit in a state where a front-back direction of the sheet is kept, and a third transport path to transport the sheet from the temporal containing unit to between the recording head and the sheet guide member in a state where the front-back direction of the sheet is kept.
