Abstract:
An image reading apparatus includes feeding rollers configured to come into contact with the lowermost medium of media mounted on a medium mounting section and transport the medium toward a downstream side, separation rollers configured to nip and separate the medium with the feeding rollers therebetween, and a medium detection section configured to detect the medium at a detection position closer to an edge side of the medium than the nip positions of the feeding rollers and the separation rollers in the medium width direction and the detection position overlapping one of the feeding rollers and the separation rollers in a side view of the medium transport path.

Claim (Index 6):
The image reading apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n transport rollers provided on an upstream side of the reading section, the transport rollers being configured to transport the medium toward the reading section side; and a passage detection section provided between the transport rollers and the feeding rollers, the passage detection section being configured to detect a passage of the medium, wherein if the medium detection section has detected the medium at the detection position, the controller drives the feeding rollers by an amount corresponding to a distance from the detection position to the passage detection section, if the passage detection section has detected a passage of a leading edge of the medium as a result of the drive of the feeding rollers, continues to feed the medium by the feeding rollers, and if the passage detection section has not detected a passage of a leading edge of the medium as a result of the drive of the feeding rollers, stops the feeding rollers.
