A recording apparatus includes a lower unit having a recording section configured to perform recording on a medium, and an upper unit disposed on the lower unit, the upper unit including a reading section configured to read an image of the document, in which the lower unit includes a medium discharge section configured to discharge the medium toward the rear of the apparatus, and a medium receiving section disposed on the apparatus rear side with respect to the medium discharge section, the medium receiving section being configured to receive the medium discharged, and the upper unit is shorter than the lower unit in the apparatus front-rear direction and the upper unit is closer to the apparatus front with respect to the lower unit such that an end portion of the medium receiving section in the medium discharging direction is exposed at the rear of the upper unit.

An image reading apparatus includes a first medium support section, a casing, a reading unit, and a posture switching section. The first medium support section supports a medium to be fed. The casing includes a reading unit that performs reading on the medium fed from the first medium support section. The reading unit performs reading on the medium fed from the medium support section. The posture switching section is configured to switch between a first posture in which the casing is inclined obliquely and a second posture in which the casing is inclined with respect to a horizontal direction more than in the first posture. An upper face of the casing is configured to be utilized as a second medium support section that is configured to mount the medium when the casing is in the second posture.

A system for extending a printer output and a printer output allows a printer to hold longer pieces of paper. The system includes a base, an extension arm, a support stand, a crossbar, a desktop printer, and an output extension clip. The base provides a structural platform to hold pieces of paper. The extension arm provides a lengthening element to hold longer pieces of paper if the base is not long enough. The support stand provides a structural reinforcement which maintains the system in a raised position from a table surface or similar. The crossbar provides a structural reference bar which is used to attach the support stand to the base. The desktop printer includes an input tray and output paper catch. The base attaches to the input tray to extend the input tray. The output extension clip attaches to the output paper catch to extend the output paper catch.

An apparatus includes a housing provided with a conveyance path, a conveyance unit which conveys a sheet along the conveyance path, a discharge port from which the sheet conveyed along the conveyance path is discharged, a discharge tray on which the sheet discharged from the discharge port is stacked, and an attitude change unit which changes an attitude of the discharge tray. The discharge tray includes a first sheet receiving surface which is a portion facing the discharge port in a discharge direction of the sheet and on which a leading edge of the sheet lands, and a second sheet receiving surface which is formed at a predetermined inclination with respect to the first sheet receiving surface. The attitude change unit changes the attitude of the discharge tray so that the first sheet receiving surface of the discharge tray is inclined toward the discharge port.

A first feeder contacts a first surface of a first sheet held in a first tray and feeds the first sheet toward a recording unit. A second feeder contacts a first surface of a second sheet held in a second tray and feeds the second sheet toward the recording unit. An inner member is disposed above a standing plate. An outer member comprises an upstream portion opposing the standing plate, and a downstream portion opposing the inner member. The inner member guides the first surface of the first sheet and the first surface of the second sheet. The standing plate guides the first surface of the second sheet. The upstream portion of the outer member guides a second surface of the second sheet, and the downstream portion guides a second surface of the first sheet and the second surface of the second sheet. The standing plate moves relative to the outer member.

An example of the claim method includes, in response to detecting a rejected media unit, directing a media feed path towards a reject area. The method includes depositing the rejected media unit into the reject area. The reject area is defined by a cassette surface on a body of the ribbon cassette. The ribbon cassette is unable to be removed from the media processing device until the rejected media unit is removed from the cassette surface.

Provided is an automatic laminating machine, including a supporting plate assembly, a case, a limiting assembly, a film separation assembly, and an input roller assembly. A lower end of the supporting plate assembly extends into and is rotatably connected inside the case. The limiting assembly and the input roller assembly are rotatably connected inside the case. The film separation assembly is arranged inside the case, and located below the input roller assembly. One end of the limiting assembly is rotatably connected to the supporting plate assembly.

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.

An image reading apparatus includes a medium support section that supports a medium to be fed, a reading unit that performs reading on the medium fed from the medium support section, and a mounting section on which the medium to be set on the medium support section is mountable, the mounting section being located outside of a main body including the reading unit.

A scanner including a medium discharging apparatus includes a discharge tray including a first tray configured to receive a front end of a medium discharged by a discharge roller pair and allow placement of the medium therein, and a second tray that is located downstream of the first tray in a medium discharge direction and configured to allow placement of the medium therein, the discharge tray being configured to switch between a first posture in which the first tray and the second tray form a first angle 1, and a second posture in which the first tray and the second tray form a second angle 2 smaller than the first angle 1, without changing the posture of the first tray with respect to the discharge roller pair.
