A printing device includes: a feeding tray on which a sheet can be mounted; a first conveying passage; an image forming unit disposed along the first conveying passage and configured to record an image on the sheet; a cutting unit disposed along the first conveying passage downstream of the image recording unit and configured to cut the sheet; a second conveying passage connected to the first conveying passage; and a controller configured to perform: conveying the sheet mounted on the feeding tray to the image recording unit; recording an image on the sheet by the image recording unit; cutting the recorded sheet at a cutting position on the sheet to divide the sheet into a first sheet on which the image has been recorded and a second sheet on which the image has not been recorded; discharging the first sheet; and conveying the second sheet to the second conveying passage.

A sheet conveyance device includes: a first conveyance path configured to allow a sheet to be conveyed along the first conveyance path; a second conveyance path that extends upward from a branch position in the first conveyance path; a third conveyance path that extends downward from the branch position; a first conveyance roller disposed in the second conveyance path and configured to rotate normally and reversely to convey the sheet; a first drive motor disposed below the branch position; and a first belt disposed in a drive transmission path from the first drive motor to the first conveyance roller and configured to transmit a driving force from the first drive motor to the first conveyance roller.

A medium receiving tray has a first tray and a second tray. A movable support having a second support surface for supporting media is disposed in the second tray. When the medium receiving tray is in a first state, the movable support is positioned above a first support surface of the first tray. When the medium receiving tray is switched from the first state to a second state, a free end is detached from the downstream end of the first support surface and displaced downward, and the second support surface is thereby inclined upward toward the downstream in a medium discharging direction.

An image reading apparatus includes a feeding roller that includes a first roller and a second roller provided at an interval in a width direction intersecting a medium feeding direction, and feeds a sheet from a placing section; and a skew detection section that detects skew of the sheet fed from the feeding roller. Skew is corrected by giving a difference between a rotation speed of the first roller and a rotation speed of the second roller with respect to at least one of the relevant sheet detected by the skew detection section and subsequent sheets fed following the relevant sheet based on a skew amount in the sheet.

A roll supporting device includes: a pair of supporting rollers which support an outer circumferential surface of a rolled medium, and which are provided so as to rotate together with the rolled medium; a side wall which has a reference surface coming into contact with one end surface of the rolled medium in an axial direction along a central axis of the rolled medium; and a pair of restricting members which press another end surface of the rolled medium toward the reference surface. The pair of supporting rollers are disposed on both sides of the central axis of the rolled medium when viewed in the axial direction of the rolled medium. The pair of restricting members are disposed outside a space between the pair of supporting rollers in a circumferential direction of the rolled medium, and are respectively adjacent to the supporting rollers, and are provided so as to be movable independently from each other.

A medium conveying apparatus includes a driving force transmitting mechanism to transmit a driving force from a first motor to a brake roller and a pair of conveyance rollers located on the downstream side of the brake roller, and a processor to rotate the first motor forward to control so that a medium separated by the brake roller is conveyed by the pair of conveyance rollers, in a separation mode. The processor rotates the first motor backward to perform a feed operation by the brake roller and rotate the pair of conveyance rollers backward until a front edge of the medium passes through a position of the brake roller, and rotates the first motor forward to control so that the medium is conveyed by the pair of conveyance rollers after the front edge of the medium passes through the position of the brake roller, in a non-separation mode.

A feeding apparatus includes a roll support unit configured to rotatably support a roll sheet which is a sheet wound into a roll form, a drive unit configured to rotate the roll sheet in a first rotation direction for feeding the sheet into a conveyance path and a second rotation direction, an abutment portion provided so as to be capable of abutting against an outer peripheral surface of the roll sheet at a first position, and a rotation member configured to abut against the outer peripheral surface at a second position. The rotation member at the second position does not rotate with the roll sheet when the roll sheet is rotated in the first rotation direction, and rotates with the roll sheet when the roll sheet is rotated in the second rotation direction.

A medium conveying apparatus includes a conveyance roller to convey a medium, a DC motor to drive the conveyance roller, a processor to rotate the DC motor, an encoder to output a first pulse signal whose cycle varies according to a rotation speed of the DC motor, and an imaging device to acquire an image acquired by imaging a conveyed medium in response to a pulse of a second pulse signal whose cycle is constant. The processor detects a number of pulses of the second pulse signal included in a predetermined cycle of the first pulse signal, and discards images acquired by the imaging device in the same number of pulses as difference between the detected number of pulses and a reference number, in a next cycle of the predetermined cycle of the first pulse signal, when the detected number of pulses exceeds the reference number.

A medium ejecting apparatus includes a housing including an ejection port to eject a medium, a tray provided below the ejection port, to load the medium ejected from the ejection port, and a medium regulating member accommodated in the housing so as to be drawn out. The medium regulating member includes a medium contacting portion capable of regulating a position of a front end of the medium on the tray in a medium ejecting direction, a first supporting portion to support the medium contacting portion, and a second supporting portion to swingably support the first supporting portion.

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.
