A recording medium supplying apparatus includes a guide unit (16') for guide a recording medium (P) from a medium sending-out unit (10), and a register unit (14) against which a leading end of the medium from the guide unit contacts. A medium passage length from the sending-out unit to the register unit via the guide unit is set shorter than a medium length in a medium moving direction to generate a bend in the medium. A cross section of a bend contact portion of the guide unit is so structured that a central region of the portion protrudes larger than regions on both sides of the central region. <IMAGE> |
