An exit tray of an image forming apparatus having printing and scanning
functions is adapted to stackably receive sheets of printed paper and
scanned documents exiting from the body. The exit tray is insertable in
and removable from the body of the image forming apparatus. The exit tray
includes a first plate that is insertable in the body. A second plate is
separable from the first plate by a predetermined distance, and may
approach the first plate. Printed sheets of paper exiting from the body
are stacked on either the first plate or the second plate. Scanned
documents exiting from the body are stacked on the plate not receiving
the printed sheets of paper.
