Claim:
1. An image forming device comprising: a housing; a first discharge roller disposed at an upper portion of an interior of the housing and configured to discharge a sheet out of the housing; a second discharge roller disposed at the upper portion of the interior of the housing and configured to discharge a sheet out a top surface of the housing, the second discharge roller having a part overlapped with the first discharge roller in a perpendicular direction perpendicular to an axial direction of the first discharge roller and to a vertical direction; a first cover pivotally movable relative to the housing about a first pivot axis extending in the axial direction between a first closing position and a first opening position, the first cover being positioned above the first discharge roller and constituting a part of the top surface of the housing when the first cover is at the first closing position, and the first cover allowing the first discharge roller to be exposed to an outside and supporting the sheet discharged from the first discharge roller when the first cover is at the first opening position; and a second cover pivotally movable relative to the housing about a second pivot axis extending in the axial direction between a second closing position and a second opening position, the second cover covering an upper portion of the second discharge roller and constituting the top surface of the housing next to the first cover positioned at the first closing position when the second cover is at the second closing position, the second cover allowing the second discharge roller to be exposed to the outside and guiding the sheet discharged from the second discharge roller when the second cover is at the second opening position, the first cover having one end portion and another end portion in the perpendicular direction, and the second cover having one end portion and another end portion in the perpendicular direction, the one end portion of the first cover being positioned farther from the second cover than the another end portion of the first cover from the second cover when the first cover is at the first closing position, and the another end portion of the second cover being positioned farther from the first cover than the one end portion of the second cover from the first cover when the second cover is at the second closing position, the first pivot axis being positioned at the one end portion of the first cover, and the second pivot axis being positioned at the another end portion of the second cover.
