Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes an apparatus main body and a feed device. The feed device is detachably attached to the apparatus main body and feeds a recording medium. The apparatus main body includes an image forming section and a main body frame. The image forming section forms an image on the recording medium. The main body frame supports the image forming section. The main body frame has a first positioning hole and a second positioning hole. The feed device includes positioning protrusions. When the respective positioning protrusions are fitted into the first and second positioning holes, a relative positional relationship between the main body frame and the feed device is determined.
