Abstract

In response to the setting of a first face-down mode on an operation panel, a topside pickup roller picks up documents stacked face-up in a document tray to bring the document to a document platen. In response to the setting of face-up mode on the operation panel, a bottom-side pickup semi-circular roller picks up documents stacked face-up in the document tray to bring the document to the document platen. A copying operation is now performed. In a single-side mode, recording sheets are inverted through a inverter path and then discharged in the face-down mode. Depending on the user's preference, the recording sheets are discharged face-down or face-up. In either discharge mode, the order of pages of copied recording sheets is not reversed.
