A bag supply system includes a bag accommodating unit having a holding member to externally support a bag bundle; and a bag supply device to which bags are supplied from the bag accommodating unit. The bag supply device includes a taking-out unit that takes the bag bundle out of the bag accommodating unit and carries the bag bundle to a depositing unit. The holding member supports the bag bundle in the state of exposing a part of one of a front surface and a back surface of each of a bag arranged on a frontmost side and a bag arranged on a backmost side of two or more bags included in the bag bundle. The taking-out unit takes the bag bundle out of the bag accommodating unit while holding the exposed part of the bag bundle supported by the holding member.

The application relates to a media drawer for a media processing device with a housing and an electrically-driven lift table arranged in the housing, where the media drawer is movable between a first position, in which the media drawer is arranged in the media processing device in such a manner that media can be removed from the media drawer by the media processing device, and a second position, in which media can be inserted into the media drawer, where the lift table can be supplied with power in the first position by the power supply of the media processing device. Further, the media drawer can exhibit a power supply that is independent of the power supply of the media processing device, via which the lift table can be provided with power in the second position.

An image forming system includes: an image former that forms an image; a stacker that stacks a recording medium on which an image has been formed by the image former and which has been discharged from the image former; a lifter that raises or lowers the stacker between a stacking position where the recording medium is stacked and a lower position located below the stacking position; a recording medium detector that detects the recording medium stacked on the stacker; and a hardware processor that controls driving of the lifter so as to lower the stacker from the stacking position to the lower position when it is determined that the recording medium is on the stacker on the basis of a detection result of the recording medium detector within start-up time from a time when power is switched on to a time of shifting to an image formable state.

A bag stocker that holds a plurality of bags to be supplied to a bag supply device, includes: a body portion provided to be movable; a plurality of bag accommodating units supported by the body portion; and a holding member which is provided in each of the plurality of bag accommodating units and supports a bag bundle including two or more bags, wherein each of the plurality of bag accommodating units is supported by the body portion to be movable in the body portion between an accommodating position and a withdrawing position where each of the plurality of bag accommodating units protrudes in comparison with each of the plurality of bag accommodating units arranged at the accommodating position.

A reloading supply system includes a loading cart (100) and a machine (200). The loading cart has a first material tray (120) that includes a first combed surface (122) configured to retain a supply material in the first material tray. The machine has a second material tray (220) that includes a second combed surface (222) configured to retain the supply material in the second material tray after the supply material is transferred from the first material tray of the loading cart to the second material tray of the machine. Teeth (124) of the first combed surface are configured to pass by teeth (224) of the second combed surface. The first combed surface and the second combed surface are configured such that the supply material in the first material tray is transferred to the second material tray as the teeth of the first combed surface pass by the teeth of the second combed surface.

A paper sheet stacking apparatus, includes: a first tray that stacks a paper sheet; a sheet discharger that discharges a paper sheet supplied from the outside of the apparatus to the first tray; a second tray that receives the paper sheet stacked on the first tray and discharges the received paper sheet to the outside of the apparatus; and a hardware processor that controls operation states of the first tray and the second tray, wherein the first tray and the second tray have: a first operation state in which the first tray is positioned at a paper sheet stacking position; a second operation state in which the paper sheet stacked on the first tray is deliverable to the second tray; and a third operation state in which the first tray that has delivered the paper sheet to the second tray is returned to the paper sheet stacking position.

A stacker device includes: a discharger that discharges sheets in response to a print job; a first tray on which the discharged sheets are stacked; a second tray that serves as a delivery destination of the sheets stacked on the first tray; a shutter that covers an opening on a front side of a housing; a driver that moves the first tray in an up-down direction; and a hardware processor that shuts off power to the driver based on a height position of the shutter and a position of the second tray in a front-rear direction.

A stacking apparatus for loading a recording medium output from an image forming apparatus includes a movable tray that is ejectable to an outside of the stacking apparatus after the recording medium output from the image forming apparatus is stacked on the movable tray, and a hardware processor that controls a position of the movable tray based on a current position of the movable tray and a setting condition for determining control content of the movable tray, wherein the hardware processor stores the movable tray inside the stacking apparatus, when the movable tray is currently positioned on the outside of the stacking apparatus and the setting condition satisfies a storage condition for executing storage control for moving the movable tray from the outside to an inside of the stacking apparatus so as to store the movable tray inside the stacking apparatus.

A stacker includes: an ejector that ejects a sheet on which an image is formed depending on a print job to an ejection destination; a first tray on which the sheet ejected by the ejector is stacked, as the ejection destination; a second tray that is a delivery destination of the sheet stacked on the first tray and with which automatic external ejection processing that ejects the sheet externally is executable; a setter that accepts a setting detail in which it is set whether or not to execute the automatic external ejection processing executable with the second tray; and a controller that controls whether or not to execute the automatic external ejection processing depending on the setting detail, wherein the hardware processor continues stacking of the sheet on the first tray when not executing the automatic external ejection processing.

The application relates to a media drawer for a media processing device with a housing and an electrically-driven lift table arranged in the housing, where the media drawer is movable between a first position, in which the media drawer is arranged in the media processing device in such a manner that media can be removed from the media drawer by the media processing device, and a second position, in which media can be inserted into the media drawer, where the lift table can be supplied with power in the first position by the power supply of the media processing device. Further, the media drawer can exhibit a power supply that is independent of the power supply of the media processing device, via which the lift table can be provided with power in the second position.
