A printing apparatus is configured to perform in a first mode in which a second driving unit drives a second spool to feed out a sheet from a roll to a printing unit via a second guide, the printing unit performs printing on the fed sheet, and a basket unit receives the printed sheet printed on by the printing unit, and a second mode in which a first driving unit drives a first spool to feed the out the sheet from a roll to the printing unit via a first guide, the printing unit performs printing on the fed sheet, and the second driving unit drives the second spool to wind up the printed sheet printed by the printing unit as a roll.

A rebel printer includes an estimation unit that estimates a remaining amount of a roll sheet based on R=PF/(?.Math.REV) (Equation (1)). A first measurement unit resets the measured cumulative rotation amount each time the remaining amount of the roll sheet is estimated or each time the remaining amount of the roll sheet is estimated multiple times, A second measurement unit resets the measured cumulative conveyance amount each time the remaining amount of the roll sheet is estimated or each time the remaining amount of the roll sheet is estimated multiple times, and the estimation unit performs a filter process on A diameter of the roll sheet calculated using the Equation (1), and estimates the diameter subjected to the filter process as the remaining amount of the roll sheet.

The banknote temporary storage device includes: a pair of coiling tapes, a large coiling block, an upper and lower coiling block assemblies, and a banknote inlet/outlet. Each of the pair of coiling tapes has one end fixed on the large coiling block and another end, and the another ends of the pair of coiling tapes are respectively fixed to the upper coiling block assembly and the lower coiling block assembly. The banknote inlet/outlet includes an upper clamping roller and a lower clamping roller. The large coiling block is provided with a lower passage guide plate having one end rotatably arranged on the lower rotating shaft and a relatively free end, a tail portion of the free end is an arc-shaped portion concentric with the large coiling block, and an angle by which the arc-shaped portion surrounds the large coiling block ranges from 40 degrees to 50 degrees.

According to an embodiment, a sheet processing apparatus includes a transport unit and a holding unit. The transport unit transports a first sheet to a first position. The transport unit transports a second sheet, which is transported after the first sheet, to a second position displaced to the upstream side of a sheet transport direction relative to the first position. The transport unit transports a third sheet, which is transported after the second sheet, to a third position displaced to the downstream side of the sheet transport direction relative to the second position. In the case where the second sheet is transported to the second position, the holding unit holds the first sheet at the first position. In the case where the third sheet is transported to the third position, the holding unit holds the second sheet at the second position.

A sheet transfer guide, which is disposed along a sheet conveyance passage through which a sheet passes, provided to guide the sheet, and is included in an image forming apparatus and an image reading device, includes a base material, a coat layer formed on the base material and having a surface roughness smaller than a surface roughness of the base material, and a guide face to which the sheet contacts. The coat layer is formed on the guide face.

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.

A sheet-conveying device contains a first linear sheet-conveying path on which the sheet is conveyed, a curved sheet-conveying path connecting the first linear sheet-conveying path and a second linear sheet-conveying path connecting the curved sheet-conveying path. A curved conveying guide is provided at only an outside of a curved sheet-conveying route. Conveying guide rollers are provided at an upstream side of the curved conveying guide. The conveying guide rollers contain a driving roller which is arranged at outside of the curved sheet-conveying path and a driven roller which is arranged at inside of the curved sheet-conveying path. The driven roller has a diameter more than that of the driving roller. The driven roller also has hardness less than that of the driving roller.

An image recording device is provided, having a recording unit configured to record an image on a sheet, and a tray disposed below the recording unit. The tray includes a sheet holding surface configured to hold the sheet. Additionally, the image recording device includes a sheet feeder disposed between the recording unit and the tray. The sheet feeder includes a roller for feeding the sheet from the tray. The roller is configured to move between a first roller position in which the roller contacts the sheet holding surface of the tray and a second roller position in which the roller is separated from the sheet holding surface. A return guide, disposed between the recording unit and the sheet feeder, defines a second conveying path to guide the sheet having an image recorded on one side thereof back to the feed guide. The return guide has a first opening configured to accommodate the roller of the sheet feeder when the roller is in the second roller position.

A sheet conveyance apparatus includes a first conveyance unit configured to form a first nip portion, a second conveyance unit configured to convey the sheet, and a guide unit configured to form a curved conveyance path. The guide unit includes a first guide, a second guide, a first driven roller rotatably driven with respect to the sheet by coming into contact with the sheet at a first contact point, and a second driven roller rotatably driven with respect to the sheet by coming into contact with the sheet at a second contact point. When viewed in a width direction orthogonal to the sheet conveyance direction, the first guide is formed so as not to intersect with a straight line passing through the first contact point and the second contact point on a side further upstream than the first contact point in the sheet conveyance direction.
