A film winding system (1) for a film stretching unit (110) comprises a film entry area (3) through which a film web (2) to be wound can be fed to the film winding system (1). A first winding station (4) is configured in a winding position to wind the film web (2) into a film bale (5). A contact roller (6) and a measuring roller (8) are provided, the contact roller (6) being arranged adjacent to the first winding station (4) in the winding position and being configured to guide the film web (2) to the first winding station (4). The measuring roller (8) is arranged before the contact roller (6) in the movement direction of the film web (2) and is configured to guide the film web (2) to the contact roller (6). A first adjustment device (10) is provided and configured to move the measuring roller (8) relative to the contact roller (6) along a travel path in such a way that a degree of wrapping over which the film web (2) covers the contact roller (6) can be varied.

A medium discharging device includes a discharging unit which discharges a medium; and a medium receiving tray which receives the medium discharged by the discharging unit, and is switched between an extended state and an accommodated state, in which the medium receiving tray is provided with a base tray, a main extending unit that is accommodated or extended, and at least one sub-extending unit that is accommodated or extended, and in which the base tray forms an accommodating space for accommodating at least the one sub-extending unit, and is provided with a first protrusion portion protruding toward the accommodating space.
