Abstract
A sheet feeding apparatus includes a sheet support to support a sheet, a sheet feeder to contact an upper surface of the sheet supported on the sheet support and feed the sheet, and a conveyor to convey the sheet fed from the sheet feeder. A first motor drives the sheet feeder and the conveyor, a second motor rotates in a first direction and in a second direction opposite to the first direction, and a lift is connected to the second motor and lifts the sheet feeder in a case where the second motor rotates in the second direction. A controller controls the first motor and the second motor and, during a job of feeding a sheet from the sheet support, starts rotation of the second motor in the second direction after starting feeding of a final sheet in the job and before stopping the first motor.
