PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To stably carry paper sheets by movable guides coping with various types of permanent bendings formed on the paper sheets at a position where two paper carrying routes are converged with each other and paper sheets of different sizes. SOLUTION: This paper guiding device 40 is disposed at the position where a paper carrying route 50 for discharging as a first paper carrying route is merged with a paper carrying route 60 for double-sided printing as a second paper carrying route. The plurality of movable guides 41 arranged in the lateral direction of paper sheets perpendicular to a paper carrying direction hold a second attitude for supporting the carrying of paper sheets P always passed through the carrying route 60 for double-sided printing by its mass as an energizing means. When the paper sheets P are passed through the paper carrying route 50 for discharging, since the paper sheets P come into contact with the movable guides 41, the movable guides 41 are independently changed to a first attitude for supporting the carrying of the paper sheets P passed through the paper carrying route 50 for discharging against an energizing force by the energizing means. The movable guides 41 are formed to cope with the permanent bendings of the paper sheets and the sizes of the paper sheets and independently changed in attitude. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
