Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes an image forming unit and a re-conveying unit to re-convey a sheet in a re-conveying direction. The re-conveying unit includes a first roller, a second roller, a pressing member, and a regulating member. The first roller is configured to rotate about a first axis and has a surface made from rubber. The second roller faces the first roller and is configured to rotate about a second axis inclined with respect to the first axis. The second roller has a first end portion and a second end portion positioned upstream of the first end portion. The pressing member is configured to exert resilient force to urge the second roller toward the first roller. The regulating member is configured to restrict the first end portion or the second end portion from moving toward the first roller, and is positioned adjacent to the second end portion.
