A sheet conveyor includes: a housing defining a conveyance path and a first side surface having an opening; a cover; a shaft defining a pivot axis of the cover and inserted in an elongated hole; and a limiter provided at the housing and having a contact surface that contacts the cover pivoted from a standing position to a lower position. The contact surface has a first end and a second end that is nearer to the conveyance path than the first end. The contact surface is inclined with respect to a horizontal direction such that the first end is located below the second end. The elongated hole permits the cover to move in such a direction that a pivoting distal end of the cover moves away from the opening, with the cover being in contact with the contact surface.

A printer includes a housing, a cover, and a movable unit. The housing has a space and an opening. The space accommodates a transportation path section that is at least part of a transportation path for transporting a paper sheet. The opening allows the space to communicate with the outside of the housing. The cover is in any one of positions relative to the opening including a closed position where the cover covers the opening and an open position where the cover uncovers the opening. The movable unit has the transportation path section and is movable between a storage position where the transportation path section is stored in the space and a pulled-out position where the transportation path section is pulled out of the space. The movable unit in the pulled-out position is restrained from moving toward the storage position when the cover is in the open position.

The image forming apparatus includes a sheet storing unit insertably and pullably attached to the frame unit, an image forming unit, and a frame unit. The frame unit includes two frame members parallel to each other with a predetermined distance therebetween and are connected and fixed to each other. The two frame members respectively include engaged portions. The sheet storing unit includes engaging portions respectively engageable with the engaged portions in a state where the sheet storing unit is inserted in the frame unit. In a state where the engaging portions respectively engage with the engaged portions, the engaging portions that respectively engage with the engaged portions and a portion between the two engaging portions of the sheet storing unit serve as strengthening members to regulate deformation of the two frame members by at least a predetermined amount.

A control portion of an image forming apparatus causes an operation of a first fan start and then causes a second fan to start. The time when the operation of the second fan starts is from a predetermined time before the time when the leading end of one sheet reaches a fixing nip to the time when the rear end of the one sheet passes through the fixing nip. In this way, since the second fan operates after the first fan operates, fine particle dust is hardly discharged to the outside of the image forming apparatus, and it is possible to suppress dew condensation inside the image forming apparatus.

A transport device includes a transporting belt having a support face configured to support a medium and configured to transport the medium, a device main body in which the transporting belt is provided, and a cleaning unit configured to clean the support face with a liquid. The cleaning unit includes a storage unit in which the liquid is stored, a flow path member through which the liquid discharged from the storage unit and returned to the storage unit passes, and a filter unit detachably provided to the flow path member. Here, the filter unit is configured to be pulled out in a direction away from the device main body.

A transportation portion includes an apparatus body, a cover, first and second path formation portions, and a movement portion. The apparatus body has a transportation path including a downward path and an upward path having portions located at the same level in the Z direction. The cover covers and uncovers the transportation path. The first path formation portion is movable to a first position and to a second position. The second path formation portion defines the upward path and defines the downward path with the first path formation portion. The movement portion moves the first path formation portion in response to opening or closing of the cover. The first path formation portion is positioned in a movement area during a closed state. The movement portion moves the first path formation portion to the second position when the cover is opened and to the first position when the cover is closed.

A first cover includes a first discharge tray portion and a first recess. The first discharge tray portion supports a discharged sheet. The first recess is formed at the first discharge tray portion. The first recess extends along a sheet discharge direction to a downstream end of the first discharge tray portion in the sheet discharge direction. The second cover surrounds the first cover. A second cover includes a second discharge tray portion and a second recess. The second discharge tray portion is arranged downstream of the first discharge tray portion in the sheet discharge direction. The second discharge tray portion supports the discharged sheet in cooperation with the first discharge tray portion. The second recess is arranged downstream of the first recess in the discharge direction. The second recess is formed continuously from the first recess, and serves as a sheet handle portion in cooperation with the first recess.

A cassette connectable to a printer includes a housing configured to house a recording sheet, a connector that is connected to a feed port of the printer for supplying the recording sheet to the printer, and a sensor group including sensor modules that measure a state in a space surrounded by the housing.

A medium transport portion includes a main body portion, a tray unit, and a support guide member. The main body portion includes a first manual feed path and a second manual feed path. The tray unit can be accommodated in the main body portion in a non-use state, and a medium is mounted thereon in a use state. The support guide member is movable in a Z-direction, and supports the tray unit such that a first position that the tray unit is positioned in the first manual feed path, a second position of being positioned in the second manual feed path, and a third position of being accommodated in the main body portion are switched.

A recording device includes a recording unit, a discharge roller unit, a medium receiving tray, a motor serving as a power source of the discharge roller, a power transmission unit that is configured to switch between a power transmission state in which power of the motor is transmitted from the motor to the medium receiving tray, and a power non-transmission state in which the power of the motor is not transmitted from the motor to the medium receiving tray, and a restriction unit that is configured to switch between a restriction state in which the restriction unit restricts displacement of the medium receiving tray when the power transmission unit is in the power non-transmission state, and a non-restriction state in which the restriction unit does not restrict the displacement of the medium receiving tray when the power transmission unit is in the power transmission state.
