A paper feed apparatus comprises primary paper feed device 3 sequentially transferring only an uppermost print sheet P on a paper feed tray, and secondary paper feed device 4 guiding a tip end of the print sheet P transferred by the primary paper feed device 3 by a pair of guide members 12 and 13, introducing the print sheet P to a portion between a pair of secondary paper feed rollers 10 and transferring the print sheet P introduced to the portion between the pair of secondary paper feed rollers 10 to a transport downstream side according to rotation of the pair of secondary paper feed rollers 10. The paper feed apparatus is provided with a guide distance adjustment device 14 for making a distance between the pair of guide members 12 and 13 variable. The guide distance adjustment device 14 rotates eccentric cams 22 by rotation of an operation member 20. A position of the upper guide member 12 is vertically changed to follow up lower surface positions of the eccentric cams 22, thereby making the distance between the pair of guide members 12 and 13 variable.
