Abstract

A concave space is formed at a predetermined position of a lower portion of an apparatus including an image forming means. An up switch, a standard position moving switch, and a down switch are arranged. When the up switch is depressed, the apparatus moves the image forming means upward to a predetermined position. When the down switch is depressed, the image forming means moves downward to a predetermined position. When the standard position moving switch is depressed, the image forming means moves to a standard position. Therefore, a wheelchair user can easily operate the apparatus.
