A transfer unit is movable between a first position adjacent to an image forming device and a second position for exposing the image forming device, when a door panel is opened. The transfer unit moves to the second position together with the door panel, and when the door panel is in a generally fully opened state, the transfer unit is movable to the first position independently of the door panel, thereby improving the ease of maintenance in the vicinity of the transfer unit.
