Abstract
A reverse roller pulls in a sheet from a first conveying path to a second conveying path by conveying the sheet in a first direction and deliver the sheet from the second conveying path to a third conveying path by reversing the conveyance direction of the sheet from the first direction to a second direction. A clutch transmits drive power of a motor to the reverse roller and controls a rotation direction of the reverse roller. A controller controls a reverse timing of the reverse roller according to an actual length of a sheet. A guidance member guides the sheet where an image is formed on a first surface from a first conveying path to a second conveying path and guides the sheet guided to the second conveying path to a third conveying path. The clutch further controls the guidance member.
