Abstract
In an image recording apparatus in which a pinch roller restrains lateral movement of image receiving paper, a skew feed roller and an edge guide are operative, by virtue of a curved portion of the paper feed path between the pinch roller and the skew roller, to position the paper laterally despite the restraint imposed by the pinch roller. The skew roller and the edge guide are disposed along a straight portion of the paper feed path.
