Abstract
At occurrence of jamming, a downstream-side conveying roller pair is stopped, while an upstream-side conveying roller pair continuously rotates, whereby a sheet between the downstream-side conveying roller pair and the upstream-side conveying roller pair is ejected from a sheet conveying path opened by a movable guide portion. At this time, a conveying force of a stepping motor driving the upstream-side conveying roller pair is made larger than the conveying force before the occurrence of jamming.
