<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a paper feeding cassette preventing eccentric pressing force applied to a paper transfer guide member to generate jam with a simple structure. <P>SOLUTION: A pick-up roller 64 of an option-type paper feeding cassette 200 picks up paper sheets, feeds them to a guide face of a paper transfer guide member 53, and transfers them to a separate image formation part via a transfer path by a drive roller 63 fixed to a machine body and a press roller 65 of the guide member 53. A side cover 51 is connected with the guide member 53 by a link member 52. The link member 52 is connected at a width center position of the side cover 51 and the paper transfer guide member 53, so that a constant pressing force is applied to the press roller 65 installed on the guide face of the paper transfer guide member 53. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI</p> |
