A post-processing device includes: a loading section that has a loading surface directed obliquely upward and in which a recording medium is loaded on the loading surface in a state where one end of the recording medium is directed downward; a supporting section that supports the one end of the recording medium loaded on the loading surface; a transporting mechanism that transports a plurality of recording media transported one by one toward the loading section by shifting and stacking the recording media in a transport direction, and sets an amount of shift of the recording media on the basis of a predetermined condition; and a transporting section that bends each of the plurality of recording media transported from the transporting mechanism by applying a transport force to an upper end of each of the recording media opposite to the one end in a state where the one end is in contact with the supporting section, and separates one by one the recording media and loads the recording media on the loading surface.

A media tray may include a number of mezzanines to accumulate media as the media is ejected from a printing device and a number of ramps to selectively engage with a leading edge of the media as the media is accumulated based on a plurality of positions of the number of ramps, the number of ramps positionable based on movement of the number of mezzanines. In one example, movement of the number of mezzanines from a first position to a second position may cause the number of ramps to be in a position to selectively engage and disengage with a leading edge of the media.

A stacking apparatus includes a conveyance unit, a stacking unit, and a separation member supply unit. The conveyance unit conveys sheets for circuit board. The stacking unit stacks the sheets. The separation member supply unit supplies a separation member to separate the stacked sheets at any position. The separation member supply unit places the separation member on the sheet in being conveyed.

According to one embodiment, a sheet carrying guide includes a first guide and a second guide. The first guide guides a sheet carried in a sub-scanning direction orthogonal to a main-scanning direction corresponding to a reading unit configured to read an image. The second guide faces the first guide and guides carrying of the sheet. In the sheet carrying guide of the embodiment, facing distance between the first guide and the second guide in both end portions of the main-scanning direction is narrower than facing distance between the first guide and the second guide in center portion thereof in the main-scanning direction.

Stacker device to stack sheets of print media. The stacker device comprises a tray to stack the sheets. The tray comprises an M-shaped tray section to apply an M-shaped profile to a sheet along a direction perpendicular to the sheet's advance direction to reduce curling. The stacker device further comprises a roof. The roof comprises at least one adjustable roof portion to limit a height of a curl of the sheet.

The present invention is to provide a transfer apparatus which can effectively correct a curl of a card and prevent deterioration of the card. The transfer apparatus transfers a transfer layer of a transfer film with a transfer roller to both faces of a card, a transfer unit which includes the transfer roller is structured to perform transfer processing for a plurality of times on at least one face of the card. A controller controls transfer sequence of transfer processing so that transfer processing is performed alternately on a first face (front face) and a second face (back face) of a card and so that the number of times of decurl processing with a decurl mechanism is smaller than the number of times of transfer processing.
