    摘要: A sheet transporting device includes: a sheet receiver that receives a sheet and that includes a first detector that detects a size of the sheet in a transport direction; a sheet transport member that transports the sheet received on the sheet receiver to an image read position along a sheet transport path; and a second detector disposed in front of the image read position on the sheet transport path to detect whether any sheet is present. The second detector determines whether the sheet received on the sheet receiver has a size smaller than or equal to a predetermined length in the transport direction.

    摘要: An image forming apparatus includes: an image forming section that forms an image on a document; a first ejection section that ejects the document on which the image has been formed by the image forming section; an exterior portion which is movable and at least a part of which constitutes an exterior of the apparatus; an entrance portion that is exposed by movement of the exterior portion and that constitutes an entrance for the document to be transported to an image reading section that reads the image formed on the document; the image reading section that reads the image formed on the document transported after the entrance portion is exposed; and a second ejection section that ejects the document which has been read by the image reading section. An ejecting direction of the first ejection section, an ejecting direction of the second ejection section, and a moving direction of the exterior portion coincide with each other.
