Abstract
An original reading apparatus includes a reading unit, a pick-up roller, a feed roller, a conveyance roller, a conveyance motor, a clutch, and a controller unit to control the clutch and the conveyance motor such that the pick-up roller and the feed roller that receive a driving force from the conveyance motor rotate at a given rotation speed. The rotation speed is set to a first speed when reading an original having a first size at a first resolution, to a second speed higher than the first speed when reading an original having the first size at a second resolution lower than the first resolution, and to a third speed lower than the second speed, regardless of designation of the reading resolution, when reading an original having a second size smaller than the first size.
