A feeding unit for a continuous form recording medium, having a feed roller, a drive motor, a first transmitting system, a second transmitting system, is provided. The first transmitting system is adapted to transmit rotating force from the drive motor to the feed roller so that the feed roller is rotated in a normal feeding direction to carry the continuous form recording medium and to allow the feed roller to be rotated in the normal feeding direction by external force. The second transmitting system is adapted to transmit the rotating force from the drive motor to the feed roller so that the feed roller is rotated in a reverse feeding direction. The switching system transmits stalling torque of the drive motor to the feed roller associated by the second transmitting system before and after the continuous form recording medium is processed through an image forming operation.
