1. A paper delivering device to deliver printing paper, comprising:
a lower frame;
an upper frame, rotatably coupled with the lower frame by a hinge part, to rotate between a driving position, in which the upper frame is disposed in parallel with respect to the lower frame so as to define a delivery pathway of the printing paper, and an opened position, in which the upper frame is spaced from the lower frame;
an upper delivery roller disposed on a lateral surface of the upper frame that faces the lower frame;
a plate, interposed between the lower frame and the upper frame, to be detachable from the lower frame in a direction parallel with a surface of the printing paper; and
a lower delivery roller disposed on a lateral surface of the plate that faces the upper frame to deliver the printing paper along the delivery pathway by rotating in a direction opposite that of the upper delivery roller when the plate is disposed at the lower frame.
