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.

The aligning device receives a sheet conveyed in a sheet conveyance direction in a stackable manner and aligns a position of the sheet in the sheet conveyance direction. The moving mechanism moves the sheet aligned by the aligning device in the sheet conveyance direction together with the aligning device. The controller selectively executes a first mode in which first post-processing is performed on the sheet and then second post-processing is performed on the sheet and a second mode in which the second post-processing is performed on the sheet without performing the first post-processing on the sheet. The controller, in response to a selection of the first mode or the second mode, causes the moving mechanism to adjust a position of the aligning device in the sheet conveyance direction before the aligning device receives the sheet as a target of the first post-processing or the second post-processing, respectively.

A sheet alignment apparatus includes a supporting portion configured to support a sheet, a first alignment member configured to abut an end portion in a first direction of the sheet supported by the supporting portion and align a position of the sheet in the first direction, a first moving unit configured to move the first alignment member in the first direction, a second alignment member configured to abut an end portion in a second direction of the sheet supported by the supporting portion and align a position of the sheet in the second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction, and a second moving unit configured to move the second alignment member in the second direction, wherein the first moving unit is disposed below the supporting portion, and wherein the second moving unit is disposed above the supporting portion.

A recording apparatus includes an apparatus main body including a recording portion, a media receiving portion configured to be displaced along a discharge direction in which the first medium and the second medium are discharged, and that is displaced between a storage position in which the media receiving portion is stored in the apparatus main body and stacking positions in which the media receiving portion protrudes from the storage position and receives the media, a drive source that drives the media receiving portion, at the stacking positions, discharges the second medium after having received the first medium at a first position, the media receiving portion is displaced to a second position downstream of the first position in the discharge direction at a timing at which a downstream end portion of the to-be-discharged second medium in the discharge direction overlaps the first medium at the first position.

A sheet processing apparatus includes a conveyance unit configured to convey a sheet, a stacking portion on which the sheet conveyed by the conveyance unit is stacked, a first regulation member configured to regulate a position of an edge portion, in a conveyance direction, of the sheet stacked on the stacking portion, a second regulation member configured to regulate a position of an edge portion, in a width direction orthogonal to the conveyance direction, of the sheet stacked on the stacking portion, a binding unit supported movably in the conveyance direction and configured to perform a binding process of binding the sheet stacked on the stacking portion, and a moving unit configured to move the second regulation member in the conveyance direction accompanied with a movement, in the conveyance direction, of the binding unit.

A recording apparatus includes a recording section that performs recording on a medium, a housing that houses the recording section, a tray configured to move to a loading position in which to load the medium to be subjected to recording and ejected and a stowage position in which the tray is stowed in the housing, and a switching unit that switches between an automatic mode in which to automatically move the tray to the loading position and the stowage position and a manual mode in which to manually move the tray to the loading position and the stowage position.

A recording apparatus includes: an output tray into which the paper sheet on which recording has been performed is outputted, wherein the output tray has a rib—includes a pair of first ribs disposed at an upstream position, the pair of first ribs being elongated in an output direction and protruding, and a pair of second ribs disposed at a downstream position, the pair of second ribs being elongated in the output direction and protruding, the output tray has an upstanding end portion (edge receiving section) formed at a downstream end in the output direction, the second rib is formed to be continuous from the edge receiving section, and each of the pair of first ribs and the pair of second ribs are symmetrically arranged to a center (center line) in a width direction, which is perpendicular to the output direction of the paper sheet.
