A paper feeding apparatus in an image forming apparatus including a paper-entering angle varying portion disposed in a frame to vary the angle of a leading end of a sheet entering a paper separating member according to the thickness or stiffness of the paper being fed. The paper-entering angle varying portion includes a paper leading end bending guide formed on the bottom surface of the frame in which paper is stacked. The paper feeding apparatus can prevent a paper feed problem, for example, multi sheet feed or a sheet feed failure by varying the paper-entering angle using the paper leading end bending guide when the paper is picked up according to the stiffness of the paper being fed.
