Abstract

An image forming apparatus includes an apparatus body, a sheet supporting portion, a sheet feeding portion configured to feed a sheet supported on the sheet supporting portion, a sheet regulation portion configured to regulate a position of the sheet in a width direction, an image forming portion including an exposing portion configured to expose a charged surface of an image bearing member, the image forming portion being configured to form an image on the sheet fed by the sheet feeding portion, and a frame member provided inside the apparatus body. A position of the exposing portion is determined with respect to the frame member. A position of the sheet regulation portion is determined with respect to the frame member.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image forming apparatus for forming an image on a sheet. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-219874, there is proposed an image forming apparatus in which a sheet supported on a sheet supporting surface of a sheet feeding device is regulated by a pair of guide members. The position of the sheet in the width direction. A pair of guide members are respectively provided with racks, and these racks are coordinated with each other by a pinion supported by a top plate portion opposed to the sheet feeding device. [0003] In the image forming apparatus disclosed in the aforementioned Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2005-219874, the position in the width direction of the sheet supported on the sheet supporting surface is regulated by the aforementioned guide member, so that the sheet is aligned with the The positions of the toner images on the member in the width d...
