An inkjet recording device includes a first tray for supporting sheets, a storage body for storing ink, a head for ejecting ink, a platen positioned between the head and the first tray, and a first guide member. The platen is configured to support a first surface of the sheet conveyed rearward at a position below the head. The first guide member is positioned frontward of the head and has a first curved surface configured to guide the first surface of the sheet conveyed from the first tray toward the platen. The first guide member has a portion arranged in alignment with the storage body in a widthwise direction perpendicular to an up-down direction and a front-rear direction. The first guide member has a portion positioned at the same height as the storage body in the up-down direction.

A medium-discharging device includes: a medium-discharging section that discharges a medium; a medium-receiving tray that receives the medium discharged by the medium-discharging section; a light-emitting section that emits light to the medium-receiving tray; and a control section that controls the light-emitting section, in which the medium-receiving tray is configured to switch between a first state in which the medium-receiving tray is stored in an apparatus main body that includes the medium-discharging section and a second state in which the medium-receiving tray protrudes from the apparatus main body, and the control section controls the light-emitting section in accordance with a state or operation of the medium-receiving tray.

A printer has a lower module and upper module. The lower module has a paper feed unit and a printing unit. A back of the upper module is hinged to lower module. A paper handling part holds paper after printing by the printing unit. A discharge unit in the upper module moves the paper out of the upper module while maintaining a hold on a rear portion of the paper and to draw the paper back into the upper module after an elapse of time. A container includes a support member that rotates into contact with and moves away from a lower part of the upper module. The container configured to receive and store the paper that has been drawn back by the discharge unit. The paper is stored in a region between the support member and the lower part of the upper module.

A printing apparatus includes a conveyance unit configured to be able to convey a roll sheet that is wound in a rolled shape and a cut sheet that is not wound in a rolled shape to a printing unit configured to print an image, a receiving unit detachably attached to the apparatus, the receiving unit being configured to receive the cut sheet onto which printing has been performed by the printing unit; a detection unit configured to detect whether the receiving unit is attached to the apparatus; and a holding unit configured to, in a case where the detection unit detects that the receiving unit is not attached to the apparatus, nip to hold the cut sheet onto which printing has been performed by the printing unit.

A medium discharge includes a first tray having a first medium receiving surface, a second tray having a second medium receiving surface for receiving the medium discharged from the first tray, a discharge section that discharges the medium disposed on the first tray to the second tray, and a push-down portion that is located downstream of a downstream end of the first medium receiving surface in the medium discharge direction, and that is located at a place deviated from the discharge section in a width direction that is a direction intersecting with the medium discharge direction, and pushes down a part of an upstream end of the medium to be discharged in the medium discharge direction.

A printer is provided, which include: a pick-up roller; a capstan roller; a platen roller; and a cartridge, wherein the cartridge incudes: a cartridge housing, which includes a printing medium receiving groove in which the printing medium is loaded; a feeding bobbin on which a ribbon is wound, a take-up bobbin for winding up the ribbon, a first opening accommodated between the feeding bobbin and the take-up bobbin for guiding the printing medium to sequentially feed from a top stacked printing medium to pass between the feeding bobbin and the take-up bobbin therethrough; and a cam unit configured to install at a lower portion of the printer to pass the printing medium through the first opening after loading the printing medium if the cartridge is loaded, and to print the printing medium by loading the platen roller.

A deflecting device for deflecting a conveyed sheet includes a guiding assembly having an inlet for receiving a conveyed sheet front an upstream section of a main conveying path, a primary outlet for discharging a conveyed sheet onto a downstream section of a main conveying path, a secondary outlet for discharging a conveyed sheet onto an initial section of a side conveying path, and a passing area for passing a conveyed sheet from the inlet towards the primary outlet; and a deflector for deflecting a conveyed sheet towards the secondary outlet, movable into a receiving position for receiving a leading edge of a conveyed sheet inside the passing area and movable into a discharge position for discharging a leading edge of a conveyed sheet towards the secondary outlet, wherein the deflector defines a curved trajectory for a conveyed sheet deflected towards the secondary outlet in the discharge position, wherein one side of the curved trajectory faces the primary outlet. A functional portion of the deflector is configured to be inserted into the passing area on the one side of the curved trajectory when the deflector moves into the receiving position, and to be retracted from the passing area on the one side of the curved trajectory when the deflector moves out of the discharge position.
