PURPOSE:To make a paper refeed cassette utilizable as a copying paper receiving device as well, by installing a selector device which selects a passage for the copying paper discharged out of a copying machine body into two parts, or the paper discharge tray side and the paper refeed cassette side. CONSTITUTION:In case of a paper discharge tray mode, a first selector claw 60 is situated at the lower step, and the copying paper discharged out of a pair of paper discharge rollers 21 of a copying machine body 1 is fed onto a paper discharge tray 45. On the other hand, when a paper refeed cassette 50 is utilized as a copying paper receiving device, both first and second selector claws 60 and 65 are selected to the upper step, the copying paper to be discharged out of the paired paper discharge rollers 21 is guided by a guide plate 70, conveying it with rollers 71 and 72, and further it is guided to a lower surface of the selector claw 65, having it fed to the inside of the paper refeed cassette 50. Thus, since the paper refeed cassette is utilizable as a copying paper receiving device as well as a paper feeding device, installation of any other separate paper discharge tray is no longer required.
