SOLUTION: The picture reader 1 is provided with a sheet carrying path 12 through it in a vertical direction. When the reader 1 is arranged over a paper feeding device 303, this path 12 forms a part of a carrying path carrying for carrying a sheet P fed out from the device 303 to the image forming part 100.
