Abstract

An object moving apparatus for controlling the movement of an object such as a print medium includes a first motor, a second motor, a moving module, a first power transmission module, a second power transmission module and a controlling module. The moving module is for moving the object. The first power transmission module is coupled between the first motor and the moving module, and is for delivering power from the first motor to the moving module to drive the moving module to move the object. The second power transmission module is coupled between the second motor and the moving module, and is for delivering power from the second motor to the moving module to drive the moving module to move the object. The controlling module is coupled to the first and second motors, and is for selectively turning on the first motor or the second motor.
