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.

Provided is a printing apparatus including a printing head, transport rollers (sheet transport rollers) configured to sandwich and transport a medium (label sheet), a medium bending unit (bending member) configured to bend the label sheet to peel off a label from a backing sheet when the label sheet has a configuration in which the label is attached to the backing sheet, and a medium guide (sheet guide) configured to contact with one edge in a width direction of the label sheet to be bent by the bending member. The sheet transport rollers include a biasing mechanism configured to bias the label sheet in a direction intersecting a transport direction of the label sheet and also toward the sheet guide, during transport of the label sheet.

A printing apparatus includes: a container which accommodates a print medium; a conveyor which has a first conveying route and which conveys the print medium from the container in a conveying direction along the first conveying route; a printing unit which prints an image on the print medium conveyed in the first conveying route; and a dividing unit which performs a dividing processing with respect to the print medium conveyed in the first conveying route. The conveyor is provided with a second conveying route which is branched from the first conveying route at a branching part and in which the print medium having the image printed thereon by the printing unit is conveyed, the printing unit and the dividing unit are positioned above the container; and the dividing unit and the branching part are positioned on an upstream side in the conveying direction with respect to the printing unit.

A printer includes a first holding shaft holding side pinch rollers and at least one center pinch roller, grit rollers moving a recording medium while holding the recording medium together with the side pinch rollers and together with the center pinch roller, and a rotator rotating the first holding shaft to cause the side pinch rollers and the center pinch roller to approach, or to be separated from, the grit rollers. The center pinch roller is movable in a direction to be separated from the recording medium, independently from the side pinch rollers.
