Abstract
When a sheet fed by a feed rotating member passes through a detection area of a leading edge detecting portion, the feed rotating member is moved to a retract position based on the detection. When the fed sheet does not pass through the detection area, the feed rotating member is moved to the retract position after a predetermined time elapses since the sheet starts to be fed by the feed rotating member.
