An image forming apparatus including: a first driven roller that forms a
first nip portion with a driving roller; a second driven roller that
forms a second nip portion with the driving roller at a downstream side
of the first nip portion; a first transfer passage into which the sheet
passed through the first nip portion and sent from the second nip portion
is transferred by a forward rotation of the driving roller; a second
transfer passage into which the sheet passed through the first nip
portion is transferred by the forward rotation of the driving roller
without passing through the second nip portion; and a third transfer
passage into which the sheet is transferred by a reverse rotation of the
driving roller after a rear end of the sheet has passed through the first
nip portion by the forward rotation of the driving roller.
