A guide apparatus for regulating manual movement of an image input device of the type which is manually moved across a fixed manuscript to read an image therefrom. The guide apparatus includes a guide member, such as a rail, for guiding the image input device across the manuscript in a first direction and a rolling means, such as a cylindrical roller, a set of wheels, or a set of caterpillar-type belts, connected to the first direction so that the image input device may be moved in orthogonal directions.
