Abstract:
An image recording apparatus includes a casing, an image recording unit, a first conveying unit, a second conveying unit, a first support member, and a second support member. The first support member is supported by the casing. The second support member rotatably supports the follow roller and has an urging member that applies an urging force to the follow roller for urging the follow roller toward the drive roller. The second support member is supported on the first support member via a rolling bearing, allowing the second support member to rollingly move to a first position when the first conveying unit nippingly conveys the recording medium and allowing the second support member to rollingly move to a second position upstream of the first position in the conveying direction when the recording medium is separated from the first conveying unit.
