Abstract
An image forming apparatus which forms an opening larger in width than recording paper at the bottom of a casing in condition of normal use, the casing constituting a body housing therein main components, and which is provided with a guide means constituting part of a passing route of the recording paper in condition of normal use and constructed to be capable of projecting at one end from the opening at the bottom of the casing. Hence, in the apparatus, even when the recording paper jams in the casing, a user can take out the jammed paper therefrom without dividing the casing and inserting fingers of a user into the casing. Accordingly, the apparatus, which can adopt integral construction not dividable, is realizable of being small-sized lightweight, and inexpensive to produce, and of saving the manhour for assembly, improving reliability, and reducing the failure occurrence rate.
