A scanning device includes a casing holding a original document table. A facing area is provided to the casing, and a rectangular hole is formed on the facing area. The rectangular hole has edges extending along a main scanning direction and edges extending along a sub-scanning direction. The edges extending along the sub-scanning direction are located in a central area of a photoelectric conversion element row of a sensor assembly in the main scanning direction. The sensor assembly scans the rectangular hole and detects a edge extending along the main scanning direction and a edge extending along the sub-scanning direction, thereby determines a scanning start position.

A recording apparatus includes a reading unit reading a medium transported through a medium transportation path and a pair of frames supporting the reading unit. The pair of frames includes a first frame and a second frame that is disposed with an interval provided between the first frame and the second frame in the width direction, at least one of the first frame and the second frame is provided with an opening portion penetrable by the reading unit, and the first frame and the second frame support the reading unit penetrating, via the opening portion, the first frame and the second frame while being disposed between the first frame and the second frame.

In one embodiment, a portable terminal has an input device, a display, and a controller. The controller analyzes maintenance information inputted by the input device, and converts the maintenance information into a format suitable for display of the display, based on this analysis result. The display displays the converted maintenance information.

A sheet conveyance device includes a sheet placing portion, a guide member, a signal obtaining portion, and a notification portion. On the sheet placing portion, a sheet to be conveyed is placed. The guide member is disposed on the sheet placing portion so as to move in a width direction vertical to a sheet conveyance direction, and restricts, in the width direction, a position of the sheet on the sheet placing portion. The signal obtaining portion obtains an electric signal with a value corresponding to a position of the guide member. The notification portion, when a difference between the value and any of thresholds that are set in advance based on each sheet size in the width direction for determination of the size of the sheet, is equal to or smaller than a predetermined reference value, notifies that the sheet is separated from the guide member.
