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.

A liquid ejection apparatus, including: a conveyor; and an ejector to eject a liquid; wherein each of an upstream roller pair, a first downstream roller pair, and a second downstream roller pair of the conveyor includes upper and lower rollers to respectively contact front and back surfaces of a recording medium, at least one of the upper and lower rollers being configured to give a conveyance force to the recording medium, wherein a rotation speed of the second downstream roller pair is higher than that of the first downstream roller pair, and the conveyance force of the first downstream roller pair is larger than that of the second downstream roller pair, and wherein the conveyance force of the second downstream roller pair is largest at a position thereof in the first direction which is nearest to the central position of the second downstream roller pair.

There is provided a sheet post-processing device that has a first tray, outlet rollers, and a control section. The first tray holds sheets for post-processing with respect to the sheets supplied from an image forming device. The outlet rollers discharge the sheet to the first tray. The control section controls a rotational speed of the outlet rollers to be decelerated after a leading end portion of the sheet passes through the outlet rollers and before the leading end portion of the sheet comes into contact with the first tray.

A sheet processing apparatus includes: an output unit that renders one side of a sheet convex and outputs the sheet, the sheet having the one side and other side; a first folding unit that mountain-folds the one side of the sheet, which is rendered to be convex, to form a first fold in the sheet; and a second folding unit that mountain-folds the one side of the sheet, which includes the first fold formed therein, to form a second fold in the sheet.

A sheet discharging device includes a stacking portion configured to stack a sheet; a discharging portion configured to feed the sheet so as to be discharged to the stacking portion, wherein the discharging portion includes a first roller configured to feed the sheet and a second roller provided so as to be contactable to a sheet surface opposite from another sheet surface to which the first roller is contactable to; and an electrically discharging member configured to electrically discharge the sheet in contact with the sheet fed by the discharging portion. As viewed in a widthwise direction perpendicular to a discharging direction of the sheet, the electrically discharging member is provided so as to extend through between rotational axes of the first and second rollers in the discharging direction of the sheet.

According to one embodiment, a sheet post-processing apparatus includes: a standby unit configured to put a sheet on standby, the standby unit including a tray member on which the sheet is placed; a corrugation forming unit configured to form a corrugation in a direction orthogonal to a conveying direction on the sheet in the standby unit, the corrugation forming unit integrally provided with the tray member; and a processing unit disposed below the standby unit and configured to process the sheet supplied from the standby unit, wherein the corrugation forming unit includes: a projecting roller projecting upward from a conveyance reference plane in the standby unit; and a housing unit configured as a part of the tray member to house the projecting roller below the conveyance reference plane.

A discharge tray includes a main tray having a support face that supports discharged paper, and an extension tray being supported by the main tray, and being capable of movement between a storage position in which the extension tray is stored in the main tray and an extended position in which the extension tray has been moved to extend along a discharge direction of the paper from a leading end side of the main tray in the discharge direction. A pair of first projections is provided to both ends at the discharge direction leading end side of the main tray, and a pair of second projections that project upward is provided to both ends at the discharge direction leading end side of the extension tray. The pair of second projections are positioned to the inside of the pair of first projections in a width direction orthogonal to the discharge direction.

The likelihood of a medium jamming is reduced or avoided during discharging media to a discharged-sheet receiving tray, and a plurality of media are appropriately discharged to, and stacked on, the discharged-sheet receiving tray. A scanner includes an apparatus body including a reading section that reads a sheet, a discharge roller pair that is provided inside the apparatus body and discharges the sheet after reads in the reading section, and a discharged sheet tray that receives the sheet being discharged by the discharge roller pair. The discharged sheet tray includes a first member that has at least a portion that is located inside the apparatus body. The first member is that supports the medium at a position higher than the placement surface of the discharged sheet tray.

A sheet conveyance apparatus includes a first projected portion including a first contact portion configured to contact against the sheet nipped by the nip portion and arranged on one side with respect to a center-line of conveyance in a width direction, a second projected portion including a second contact portion configured to contact against the sheet nipped by the nip portion and arranged on the other side with respect to the center-line of conveyance in the width direction, and an adjustment mechanism configured to adjust a position of at least either one of the first projected portion and the second projected portion.
