することができる。On the other hand, the recording paper 12 is set on the recording paper insertion opening 3 and the original / recording paper placing table 10 which are arranged above the rear part of the main body of the apparatus and behind the original insertion opening 2. The recording paper 12 set on the original / recording paper placing table 10 is separated by a recording paper separating roller 13. The separated recording paper 12 is conveyed to the recording paper conveyance path 16. Here, the recording paper conveyance path 16 is disposed below the document conveyance path 9, is substantially parallel to the document conveyance path 9, and is approximately 20 horizontal.
The recording paper conveyance path is arranged such that the upstream side of the recording paper conveyance path is located above the downstream side, and the rib 10c of the original / recording paper placing table 10 causes the recording paper 12 to go straight with respect to the recording paper conveyance path 16. Since the recording paper 12 is guided in this manner, the recording paper 12 is configured to move substantially straight along the recording paper conveyance path 16. Therefore, since the recording paper conveyance direction is a direction utilizing gravity, stable recording paper conveyance performance can be realized.

When the original / recording paper placing table 10 is in the open position, the original 10 is in an obliquely standing state as shown in FIG. 2, and the original 1 is supported by the ribs 10c so that the original 1 is fed from the original insertion port 2 and transmitted. can do. Similarly, when receiving and recording, the recording sheet 12 can be supported by the ribs 10c in a state of standing diagonally. Further, since the original / recording paper placing table 10 covers almost the entire surface of the main body of the apparatus, its length is long. Therefore, in the open position shown in FIG. 2, its height is high. Therefore, the large original 1 and the recording paper 12 can be stably supported.
A cutout 1 is provided at the center of the original / recording paper table 10.
Although 0a is formed, there is no problem since the original 1 and the recording paper 12 are supported by the rib 10c.
