A printer includes a transport unit, a line head, and a head moving unit. The transport unit supports a medium during transport. The line head performs recording on the medium that is disposed so as to face the transport unit at one or more recording positions of recording on the medium. The head moving unit moves the line head to one or more retreat positions away from the transport unit with respect to the recording position. In addition, the head moving unit moves the line head in a B direction intersecting both an X direction and a Z direction.

A recording device has: a recording head configured to perform recording on a medium; a medium storage below the recording head configured to store the medium to be recoded; a supply path comprising a first curved supply path curved so as to be convex upward and transporting the medium fed out of the medium storage in a reversed direction via the first curved supply path; and a reversing path comprising a second curved path curved so as to be convex downward and transporting the recorded medium into a direction including a vertically upward component via second curved path from a direction including a vertically downward component; wherein the supply path joins the reversing path, and the first curved path and the second curved path overlap when viewed horizontally.

Provided is a recording material processing apparatus including: a recording material support portion configured to support a recording material loaded thereon from below; a contact member disposed on a side of the recording material loaded on the recording material support portion and configured to be pushed by an edge portion of the recording material, the contact member being configured to move to a side opposite to the side of the recording material; an elastic member configured to receive a load from the contact member pushed by the edge portion of the recording material; and a member support portion disposed without contacting the recording material loaded on the recording material support portion and configured to support the contact member.

A printing device is provided comprising a camera to capture an image of at least a portion of a print substrate; a controller to determine a location of a portion of a side edge of the substrate from the image to determine a distance of the print substrate from a predetermined location; and adjustment apparatus to adjust the entire substrate laterally, relative to the direction of transport of the substrate, based on the determined location.

A printer that performs printing for a print region of a glass plate includes a conveying unit that includes a plurality of paired rollers adapted to sandwich both side faces of the plate, brings the paired rollers respectively in contact with the both side faces with an urging force, and conveys the plate only by the plurality of the paired rollers; a printing unit that includes a printhead and a swinging unit adapted to swing the printhead between a printing position and a retracting position and shifts the printhead to the printing position so as to come in contact with the print region by the swinging unit when printing, and performs printing for the print region by the printhead; and a suppressing guide unit that regulates floating-up of the plate when printing by coming in contact with the plate only on a neighborhood region of the side face.

A drying device includes a first-heating rotator configured to contact a sheet twice from different directions, and at least three second-heating rotators each configured to contact the sheet once. The at least three second-heating rotators are in a conveyance path configured to guide the sheet to contact the first-heating rotator again after the sheet contacts and passes the first-heating rotator.

An image recording apparatus for recording an image on a sheet includes a recording section which records the image on the sheet in a transport passage for transporting the sheet in a transport direction and multiple plates which are spaced apart from each other in a widthwise direction. These multiple plates include a first type of plate and a second type of plate. Plates of a first type of plate are configured to overlap a sheet when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the transport direction and the widthwise direction, while plates of the second type of plate do not.

A printing apparatus includes a feeding unit, a pair of rollers, a printing unit, and a control unit. The control unit can execute skew correction. The control unit can execute control to convey a preceding printing medium and a succeeding printing medium by the pair of rollers in a state in which a trailing edge portion of the preceding printing medium and a leading edge portion of the succeeding printing medium overlap. The control unit sets an execution timing of the skew correction for the succeeding printing medium based on positions of the preceding printing medium and the succeeding printing medium if a predetermined condition is met. The predetermined condition is that the preceding printing medium reaches a position at which a remaining print range for the preceding printing medium equals a predetermined print range.

A guide guides a movement of a platen from a set position P1 at which a recording medium is set on the platen to a press position P3 at which a heat press portion performs heat press operation on the recording medium. A distance from the set position P1 to the press position P3 is longer than a distance from the set position P1 to an application position P2 at which an application portion applies a pretreatment agent onto the recording medium set on the platen.

An attachment is attachable to and detachable from a sheet stacking board. The attachment includes an end fence configured to restrict a position of a trailing end of a sheet in a conveying direction. The end fence includes a facing surface facing the trailing end of the sheet. The facing surface includes an inclined surface inclined with respect to a vertical direction of a stacking surface on which the sheet is stacked, such that a higher part of the facing surface is located more upstream in the sheet conveying direction.
