Abstract

A sheet transport apparatus is used in a duplex image forming apparatus which makes two-sided prints. The sheet transport apparatus has a transport path for supplying a recording sheet which is received from a paper supplying unit to an image forming part, a reversing path for reversing side of the recording sheet, and two driving sources for independently driving mechanisms which transport the recording sheet in each of the transport path and the reversing path.
