PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily take out a recording paper stopping in the carrying path of a branching means by adopting block construction for a fixed branching member and a movable branching member, in the branching means and separating the movable branching member from the fixed branching member with the opening operation of an opening/closing door and to smoothly insert, the recording paper into the entrance part of a recording paper introducing part, from a reverse carrying path by attaining precise positioning in the fixed branching member, when the opening/closing door is closed, that is, the image is formed. SOLUTION: The branching means 42 having a guiding surface for switching the carrying path is provided in a reverse carrying part, and at least one branching member 42B for forming the guiding surface of the branching means 42 is rockably attached to the opening/closing door 101 capable of opening/closing. Then, a positioning projection part, is provided in the branching member 42B, to be outside a recording paper passage part and a positioning guide part, 123 is provided outside the recording paper passage part of the reverse carrying part of an image forming device main body side. When the opening/closing door 101 is closed, the positioning projection part, is fitted into the positioning guide part, 123, to install the branching means 42 in a fixed position in the image forming device. |
