In one example, an apparatus includes a transparent platen to receive a document to be scanned. The transparent platen includes a scan line, an ingress edge positioned prior to the scan line in the document path, and a chamfered egress edge positioned subsequent to the document path. A light source is positioned to illuminate the document with light while the document passes across the scan line, and a focusing mechanism is positioned to focus a portion of the light that is reflected by the document onto a sensor that senses the portion of the light.

An image forming apparatus includes: a casing including a first side surface, and a second side surface opposing the first side surface in the first direction, and an NFC board and a USB board that are disposed in the casing. The NFC board has a first board surface. The USB board has a second board surface on which a USB port is mounted. The NFC board and The USB board that are disposed in the casing at a position closer to the first side surface in the first direction than the second side surface. The second board surface is located at a level different from the first board surface in the direction normal to the first board surface. The USB board does not overlap with the NFC board when viewed in the direction normal to the first board surface.

An electronic apparatus includes a processor that performs: obtaining first information related to ambient electromagnetic radiation of the electronic apparatus in an environment having at least one other electronic apparatus; and controlling operation of either one or both of the electronic apparatus and the at least one other electronic apparatus with reference to the result of the comparison of a level of ambient electromagnetic radiation of the electronic apparatus to an allowable limit of electromagnetic radiation exposure of the electronic apparatus, the level of ambient electromagnetic radiation being included in the first information obtained by the processor.

An image forming apparatus includes an image scanning device, which comprises: a document tray to load an original document to be scanned; a discharge tray to load the original document after being scanned; and a frame which the document tray and the discharge tray are mounted on. A conveyance path is formed inside the frame to connect the document tray and the discharge tray. The frame contains a conveying structure to convey the original document along the conveyance path; a transparent support member located below the conveyance path to support the original document; a scanning member located below the transparent support member, the scanning member having a scanning position in which the scanning member scans the original document when being located on the transparent support member; and a pressing member disposed above the transparent support member and facing the scanning member for pressing the original document onto the transparent support member.

The image reading apparatus according to the present invention includes an original conveyor configured to convey an original, and a first image reader, which includes a first light transmitting member, and is configured to read, through the first light transmitting member, an image on a first surface of the original conveyed by the original conveyor. A fluorine-containing organic compound coating is applied in a first region on a surface of the first light transmitting member to be brought into contact with the first surface of the original. A conductive resin sheet is provided in a second region that is positioned on an upstream side in a conveying direction of the original with respect to the first region on the surface of the first light transmitting member. The conductive resin sheet is electrically connected to a grounded metal portion of the image reading apparatus.

An image sensor module includes a first image reading chip and a second image reading chip. A first output circuit of the first image reading chip performs driving with multiple drive capabilities. A first output selection unit selects a first drive capability from the multiple drive capabilities and supplies a selection signal to the first output circuit. A second output circuit of the second image reading chip performs driving with one of the multiple drive capabilities. A second output selection unit selects a second drive capability from the multiple drive capabilities and supplies a selection signal to the second output circuit.

An image forming apparatus may have the followings. A switching transformer has a first coil, a second coil, and a first core. The switching transformer generates a secondary side current in the second coil by a magnetic flux generated in the first core by a current that flows in the first coil. A common mode choke coil has a third coil, a fourth coil, and a second core. The common mode choke coil reduces a common mode noise. The switching transformer and the common mode choke coil are mounted on a substrate so that a direction of the magnetic flux generated in the first core and a direction of a magnetic flux generated in the second core are perpendicular.

A medium transporting device includes a driving roller that transports a medium and that is driven to rotate, a driven roller that nips the medium between the driving roller and the driven roller and rotates in accordance with the rotation of the driving roller, a rotary shaft of the driven roller, a first pressing member that presses the rotary shaft in a direction in which the driven roller comes into contact with the driving roller, a second pressing member that presses the rotary shaft in a direction in which the driven roller comes into contact with the driving roller, and a spacer member that is integrally provided with a first spacer interposed between the rotary shaft and the first pressing member and a second spacer interposed between the rotary shaft and the second pressing member.
