A medium storage device includes a safe having at a front portion a first entrance for replenishment and recovery to which a first transit cassette is selectively connected and at a rear portion a second entrance for replenishment and recovery to which a second transit cassette is selectively connected; an identification unit serving to identify whether the medium is a normal medium or a rejection medium; a recycle cassette configured to accommodate the medium recognized as the normal medium; a conveyance path configured to convey the medium between the first entrance, the second entrance, the identification unit, and the recycle cassette; and a control unit is configured to control the conveyance path such that the medium accommodated in the first transit cassette is conveyed to the identification unit, and the medium identified as the normal medium in the identification unit is conveyed to the recycle cassette.

A sheet processing device includes a stacking member configured to stack a sheet, a discharging member configured to discharge the sheet stacked on the stacking member, a discharging tray on which the sheet discharged by the discharging member is stacked, a pushing-out member configured to push out the sheet from the stacking member toward the discharging member by being moved in a pushing-out direction, and a controller configured to select, on the basis of information of the sheet stacked on the stacking member, whether to move the pushing-out member to which position of a first position and a second position positioned on a side downstream of the first position with respect to the pushing-out direction.

A recording apparatus includes a recording portion configured to record an image on a recording medium; a housing having an ejection opening on the side of the housing, the recording medium recorded with the image being ejected from the ejection opening in the ejection direction; and a receiver that receives the recording medium ejected from the ejection opening. The recording apparatus further includes a guide provided inside the ejection opening of the housing, and the receiver has an end on an upstream side of the receiver with respect to the ejection direction such that the end is held at a position overlapping with the guide.

A bill processing apparatus which is capable of reliably supplying information on a bill to the bill housing body side. The paper sheet processing apparatus has a bill housing part being capable of housing a bill inserted from a bill insertion slot, and also a reader/writer which wirelessly transmits information on the bill inserted from the bill insertion slot. The bill housing part has a coil antenna which wirelessly receives the information transmitted from the reader/writer, and a storage part which stores the information on the bill received from the coil antenna.

A document feeder includes a document placing tray on which a document is placed; a document discharging tray on which a document discharged from a document discharging port in a discharging direction is stacked; and a light source that radiates light to the document discharging tray. The document discharging tray is disposed below the document placing tray. The document discharging tray has a protruding portion protruding upward from the surrounding area. The light source is disposed within a region having a width that is the same as a document having a maximum size in the width direction.
