An apparatus includes an openable and closable cover, a movable member disposed in the apparatus main body and to be exposed outside when the cover is opened, an openable and closable support member that supports the movable member, and a support shaft that supports the cover and the support member. The movable member and the support member are moved together with the cover as the cover rotates about the support shaft. The support shaft can move between a first position at which the support shaft supports the cover and the support member and a second position at which the support shaft does not support the cover and supports the support member. Moving the support shaft to the second position allows the cover to be detached from the apparatus main body.

A medium supply device is provided that includes a single sheet paper accommodating unit at which media are stacked and placed, and a feeding roller configured to feed the media by rotating in contact with a top surface of the placed media. The feeding roller includes a contact portion configured to contact the single sheet paper and a non-contact portion configured to not contact the single sheet paper in a rotational direction, and a plurality of the contact portions and the non-contact portions are provided in a first direction that is an extending direction of a rotation axis of the feeding roller, and the contact portions adjacent to each other in the first direction are out of phase in the rotational direction.

An image forming system includes: an image forming apparatus that forms a first image according to a job on a plurality of first sheets and inserts a second sheet between the plurality of first sheets; a cutting processor that sequentially performs cutting processing on the plurality of first sheets and the second sheet that are conveyed from the image forming apparatus; and a sheet discharging tray on which an output object obtained by the cutting processing on each of the plurality of first sheets and a slip sheet obtained by the cutting processing on the second sheet are stacked, wherein the cutting processor performs the cutting processing on each of the plurality of first sheets in accordance with a first cutting condition, and performs the cutting processing on the second sheet in accordance with a second cutting condition different from the first cutting condition.

A bearing which supports one end side of a driving roller includes a first restriction portion which is restricted from rotating and moving with respect to a first frame, and a bearing which supports the other end side of the driving roller includes a second restriction portion which is restricted from rotating and moving with respect to a second frame. As viewed from a direction perpendicular to a width direction of an intermediate transfer belt, a phase of shape of the first restriction portion in a state of being held by the first frame and a phase of shape of the second restriction portion in a state of being held by the second frame are equal to each other.

There is provided a printing apparatus including: a recorder; first and second conveying rollers; a first member which includes the first conveying roller and in which the first conveying roller is supported shakably; and a second member which includes the second conveying roller. The first member includes: a roller support having: an extending part which extends in an extending direction of a rotation shaft of the first conveying roller, and first and second supports which rotatably supports first and second ends of the rotation shaft of the first conveying roller, respectively; and at least one pressing part configured to press a central area of the extending part in a pressing direction extending from the first conveying roller to the second extending roller, in a state that the first and second conveying rollers are brought into contact with each other.

An image forming apparatus includes a main body including an image forming unit to form an image on a recording medium and a tray that rotates between an open state and a closed state relative to the main body, the tray on which the recording medium is placed. The tray includes a first component located exterior to the image forming apparatus in the closed state and a second component in contact with the recording medium on the tray in the open state. The first or second component includes at least one groove portion which extends in a conveyance direction of the recording medium and the other includes at least one convex portion extending in the conveyance direction. The first and second components are bonded by adhering, with an adhesive, the at least one groove portion and the at least one convex portion put inside the at least one groove portion.

A sheet storage device includes a sheet storage unit to store sheets, a regulating unit in the sheet storage unit, and a lifting unit. The regulating unit regulates a position of a rear edge portion of the sheets in a sheet conveyance direction and includes a supporting portion, an urging member, and a pressing portion having a pressing surface in which a position to be in contact with lower sheets is a pressing surface lower portion, and a position to be in contact with upper sheets located higher than the lower sheets is a pressing surface upper portion. The pressing surface can be in a first state, where the pressing surface upper portion is located downstream from the pressing surface lower portion in a pressing direction, or in a second state, where the pressing surface lower portion is located downstream from the pressing surface upper portion in the pressing direction.

A paper feed device having regulation plates that are movable on a paper feed tray for loading paper and regulate edges of the paper, includes: a driver that moves the regulation plates; and a hardware processor that acquires paper information corresponding to a characteristic of the loaded paper, and causes the driver to move the regulation plates according to the acquired paper information.

A sheet conveying apparatus including: a pair of inlet rollers; a pair of outlet rollers; a pair of movable rollers disposed between the inlet rollers and the outlet rollers; a moving unit configured to move the movable rollers; a pair of upstream rollers disposed between the inlet rollers and the movable rollers; a pair of downstream rollers disposed between the movable rollers and the outlet rollers; a first conveyance belt passed over a first inlet roller, a first outlet roller, a first movable roller, a first upstream roller, and a first downstream roller; and a second conveyance belt passed over a second inlet roller, a second outlet roller, a second movable roller, a second upstream roller, and a second downstream roller. A diameter of the pair of upstream rollers and a diameter of the pair of downstream rollers are smaller than a diameter of the pair of movable rollers.

In a transport device, a cover defining a portion of a transport path is pivotable between a closed state and an open state. The cover is movable while in the closed state between a first position and a second position lower than the first position. An urging member urges the cover from the second position toward the first position. The cover includes a main body for guiding the sheet in the transport direction and an engagement portion engaged with a frame when the cover is at the first position to restrict pivoting of the cover from the first position to a third position at which the cover is in the open state. The engagement portion is disengaged from the frame when the cover is at the second position to allow pivoting of the cover from the second position to the third position.
