A paper conveying/branching device comprising a main conveyer passage, a first branched conveyer passage, a second branched conveyer passage, a conveyer passage change-over guide member, a solenoid and a controller. When the displacing member of the solenoid is displaced to the first operation position from the second operation position, the conveyer passage change-over guide member is rotated from the second position to the first position by its own weight or by a spring force, so that the upstream side in the direction of conveying the paper is lowered with respect to the support shaft. In a state where the conveyer passage change-over guide member is brought to the second position, the controller so operates the solenoid that the displacing member is displaced to the first operation position from the second operation position after the leading end of the paper has passed through, or while the leading end of the paper is passing through, the conveyer passage change-over guide member.
