In an image forming apparatus, a tray having first and second receiving portions is configured to move between a first position, at which at least part of the tray is positioned inside an apparatus body, and a second position, at which the tray is outside the apparatus body. The tray in the first position allows a first recording medium to be conveyed from the first receiving portion. When the tray is in the first position, the second receiving portion is configured to move between a third position, which is at an upstream side relative to a first opening of the apparatus body in a second direction, and a fourth position, which is at a downstream side relative to the third position in the second direction. The second receiving portion at the third position allows a second recording medium to be conveyed from the second receiving portion in the second direction.

A processing system includes a stacker on which at least one medium recorded with an image is stacked, a holding unit configured to hold the medium, a processing path extending from the stacker to the holding unit, a pick roller configured to transport the medium from the stacker to the processing path, a reading unit configured to read the medium transported through the processing path, and a control unit configured to store indication data indicating an index of whether to transport a medium to the holding unit, wherein, when receiving a processing instruction from a user, the control unit is configured to cause the pick roller to transport a medium from the stacker to the processing path, and determine whether to transport the medium to the holding unit, based on read data and the indication data, the read data being acquired by reading the medium by the reading unit.

A sheet feeding apparatus includes a detection unit provided to be movable with respect to a sheet stacking portion and configured to detect a sheet by causing a contact portion to come into contact with an uppermost sheet stacked on a stacking surface, wherein a bottom portion of the sheet stacking portion forms a part of a bottom portion of the sheet feeding apparatus, the sheet stacking portion is provided with a through hole configured to be expose in the case where no sheet is stacked on the stacking surface, the through hole penetrating the stacking surface to a bottom surface of the sheet stacking portion, and the contact portion is positioned inside the through hole in the case where no sheet is stacked on the stacking surface.

An image reading apparatus includes a stacking unit having an abutment portion, a feeding unit, a conveyance unit, a reading unit, a rotating shaft, and a drive unit. The abutment portion abuts a document end in a widthwise direction of a document stacked on the stacking unit. The conveyance unit conveys the stacked document fed by the feeding unit in a feeding direction perpendicularly intersecting the document widthwise direction. The reading unit reads an image of the document. The drive unit rotates the stacking unit, rotatably supported by the rotating shaft, around the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is disposed at a position where at least a part of the rotating shaft exists between one end and other end in the document widthwise direction of a document having a maximum width conveyable by the conveyance unit in a state where the maximum width document abuts on the abutment portion.

An image reading apparatus includes a first stacking unit having a stacking surface, and an abutment portion that abuts a document stacked on the stacking surface, a feeding unit, a reading unit, a second stacking unit, a detection unit, a rotating shaft, a drive unit, and a control unit. The second stacking unit receives the document fed by the feeding unit and read by the reading unit. The detection unit detects presence or absence of the document stacked on the second stacking unit. The drive unit rotates the first stacking unit around the rotating shaft rotatably supporting the first stacking unit. Based on the detection of the absence of the document on the second stacking unit by the detection unit, the control unit controls the drive unit to rotate the first stacking unit in a direction with which the abutment portion is lowered.
