Abstract
An image forming apparatus capable of easily performing jammed sheet recovery in a sheet feeding portion is provided. Upper guide grooves that guide attachment and detachment of a conveyance guide member and lower guide grooves that guide attachment and detachment of a sheet feeding cassette are formed in supporting plates that are provided in attachment and detachment directions in an apparatus body to face each other. When jamming occurs, a space near the sheet feeding portion is secured by extracting the conveyance guide member from the apparatus body.
