An image forming apparatus includes an apparatus main body and an original
reading device disposed on top of the apparatus main body. A sheet supply
cassette, a sheet discharge tray, an original feed tray, and the original
discharge tray are oriented such that their lengthwise directions are
aligned with the first horizontal direction, and are arranged to overlap
with one another in the vertical direction. A pair of side walls is
disposed at both widthwise ends of the sheet supply cassette, the sheet
discharge tray, the original feed tray, and the original discharge tray.
The both widthwise ends of these components are formed as edge portions.
The pair of side walls covers an entire length of each of the edge
portions, thereby supporting all of the sheet supply cassette, the sheet
discharge tray, the original feed tray, and the original discharge tray.
