A medium discharge device includes a discharge roller pair that is provided with a discharge driving roller and a discharge driven roller which drivably rotates in contact with the discharge driving roller, and a medium receiving tray which receives the medium that is fed and discharged by the discharge roller pair, in which the medium receiving tray includes a guide member which guides such that a tip end of the medium which is discharged from the discharge roller pair enters the medium mounting surface at a predetermined angle, and the guide member is provided to be elastically displaceable in an advancing and retreating direction with respect to the medium mounting surface of the medium receiving tray and is displaced in a direction coming close to the medium mounting surface according to raising of a pressing load due to the medium that is discharged to the medium receiving tray.

A sheet feeding device includes a housing, a sheet stacker, a stacker elevator, an extension sheet stacker, and a support. The sheet stacker is included in the housing and is configured to stack a sheet. The stacker elevator is configured to elevate the sheet stacker. The extension sheet stacker is attached to the sheet stacker and is configured to extend outward from the housing. The support is configured to support the extension sheet stacker and has an inclined portion configured to diagonally extend in a sheet conveyance direction, to the housing from a position upstream from a center of the extension sheet stacker in the sheet conveyance direction, when viewed from a width direction of the sheet.

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.

A multi-function apparatus employs an in-body sheet discharge type configuration. The image forming device includes a front door and a multi-purpose tray. The front door is movable between a closed position set along a side surface at one side of a case of the image forming device and an opened position opened at the one side with respect to the side surface. The front door has an opening formed therein. The multi-purpose tray is provided to be selectively located at a non-use state at which the multi-purpose tray closes the opening and an in-use position at which the multi-purpose tray opens the opening. When the front door is located at the closed position and the multi-purpose tray is located at the non-use position, an upper end surface of the multi-purpose tray is exposed upward.

A medium receiving tray has a first tray and a second tray. A movable support having a second support surface for supporting media is disposed in the second tray. When the medium receiving tray is in a first state, the movable support is positioned above a first support surface of the first tray. When the medium receiving tray is switched from the first state to a second state, a free end is detached from the downstream end of the first support surface and displaced downward, and the second support surface is thereby inclined upward toward the downstream in a medium discharging direction.

A feeder includes a body, a mount portion disposed in the body to support from below part of recording media stacked thereon, a lift that raises the mount portion, a support portion connected to the body to support from below another part of the recording media while the mount portion is raised, the support portion being located higher than a position of a mount surface of the mount portion while the recording media are stacked on the mount portion, a blowing portion that blows air between the recording media stacked on the mount portion, and a transport portion that transports the recording media stacked on the mount portion.

A medium accommodation cassette includes a first medium accommodation portion that forms a portion of a medium accommodation region and a second medium accommodation portion that forms a portion of the medium accommodation region and is configured to be switchable between a first state and a second state in which the second medium accommodation portion is displaced from a position thereof in the first state in a cassette removing direction so as to stretch the medium accommodation region. A step portion on a side surface, which is formed between the first medium accommodation portion and the second medium accommodation portion, is positioned inside an insertion/removal mouth when the second medium accommodation portion assumes the second state in the state in which the medium accommodation cassette is installed in the insertion/removal mouth.

A recording apparatus includes a recording section that performs recording on a medium, a housing that houses the recording section, a tray configured to move to a loading position in which to load the medium to be subjected to recording and ejected and a stowage position in which the tray is stowed in the housing, and a switching unit that switches between an automatic mode in which to automatically move the tray to the loading position and the stowage position and a manual mode in which to manually move the tray to the loading position and the stowage position.

A recording apparatus includes: an output tray into which the paper sheet on which recording has been performed is outputted, wherein the output tray has a rib—includes a pair of first ribs disposed at an upstream position, the pair of first ribs being elongated in an output direction and protruding, and a pair of second ribs disposed at a downstream position, the pair of second ribs being elongated in the output direction and protruding, the output tray has an upstanding end portion (edge receiving section) formed at a downstream end in the output direction, the second rib is formed to be continuous from the edge receiving section, and each of the pair of first ribs and the pair of second ribs are symmetrically arranged to a center (center line) in a width direction, which is perpendicular to the output direction of the paper sheet.

There are provided a medium support section that forms a support surface that supports a medium before feeding; a feeding roller that sends out the medium supported by the medium support section in a feeding direction; and an apparatus main body, the medium support section is configured to switch between a stored state of being stored in the apparatus main body and a protruding state, the protruding state being a state where protrudes from a first side surface which is one of side surfaces that form a periphery of the apparatus main body, and in the protruding state of the medium support section, a downstream end of the support surface in the feeding direction is at a position close to a second side surface, which is a side surface opposite to the first side surface, between the first side surface and the second side surface.
