A recording device as a processing device includes: a recording unit accommodated in a housing and configured to perform recording on a medium; and a medium accommodating unit that accommodates the medium discharged from the housing. The medium accommodating unit includes: a sheet-shaped accommodating member; a rotating shaft provided inside the housing and to which one end of the accommodating member is connected; and an operating portion provided separably from the housing and to which the other end of the accommodating member is connected. The accommodating member is wound around the rotating shaft and accommodated inside the housing when the operating portion is mounted on the housing. The accommodating member is fed from the rotating shaft so that the medium is accommodated when the operating portion is separated from the housing.

A recording device includes a recorder, a placement portion, an adjustment mechanism, a movement mechanism, a medium detector, an input portion, and a notification portion. The recorder performs a first operation of moving the placement portion to a first position to cause at least a portion of the placement portion to be located at a detection position, causing the medium detector to detect, at the first position, whether or not the medium is at a reference position, and causing the notification portion to notify information based on a detection result of the medium detector, and a second operation of moving the placement portion to cause an entire region of the placement portion in a second direction to pass through the detection position, causing the medium detector to detect whether or not the medium is at the reference position while the medium is passing through the detection position, and causing the notification portion to notify the information based on the detection result of the medium detector.

Described herein are novel printer adapters and systems and methods thereof that include techniques and structures for converting a desktop or compact printer configured to print onto rolls of media into a desktop or compact printer configured to print onto fanfolds of media. In other words, described herein are novel printer adapters and systems and methods thereof for converting a roll printer to a fanfold printer.

A post-processing device includes an intermediate tray on which a medium transported in a transport direction is placed, a discharge port through which the medium post-processed on the intermediate tray is discharged, a discharge tray which is disposed in a gravity direction with respect to the discharge port and on which the medium discharged from the discharge port is placed, and an elevating mechanism which elevates the discharge tray, in which the elevating mechanism can move the discharge tray to a first normal position and a first standby position positioned in a direction opposite to the gravity direction with respect to the first normal position, and moves the discharge tray to the first normal position or the first standby position according to an amount of ink before the medium comes in contact with the discharge tray or the medium previously placed on the discharge tray.

Provided is a printing apparatus enabling a user to easily perform jam processing. The printing apparatus includes a printing unit, a cassette in which a plurality of sheets to be printed by the printing unit are mounted, and which is capable of being drawn out from the device by a user, a roller pair which is capable of being in an abutting state and a separate state and transports the sheet supplied from the cassette by interposing the sheet, in the abutting state, and a mechanism which changes the roller pair from the abutting state to the separate state as the cassette is drawn out.
