A printing device includes a roll paper holder configured to accommodate a first roll paper and a second roll paper and having first and second side walls configured to contact side surfaces of the first roll paper, a remaining amount detecting section having a first projection projecting from the first side wall to detect a remaining amount of the first roll paper accommodated in the roll paper holder, a roll paper guide configured to be installed in the roll paper holder and having a third side wall configured to contact a side surface of the second roll paper when the second roll paper is accommodated in the roll paper holder, and a detection assistance section provided on the roll paper guide and having a second projection projecting from the third side wall in a state of being in contact with the first projection.

A sheet conveyance device includes a conveyance unit, a skew conveyance unit, and an abutment unit. The conveyance unit conveys a sheet in a conveyance direction. The skew conveyance unit conveys the sheet in a first direction inclined to the conveyance direction. The skew conveyance unit is rotatable about an axial line orthogonal to the first direction. The abutment unit on which a side end portion of the sheet in a width direction of the sheet orthogonal to the conveyance direction of the sheet conveyed by the skew conveyance unit abuts. The abutment unit includes an abutment member extending in the conveyance direction and having a first surface, and a sheet member in a sheet form, wherein the sheet member is detachably attached to the first surface. The conveyed sheet is conveyed by the skew conveyance unit with the side end portion of the sheet abutting on the sheet member.

A device for offsetting sheets as they are conveyed in a paper path toward a stacker includes a narrow channel mounted to a set of linked arms which when moved in a process direction (upstream-downstream) articulate in a cross process direction (inboard-outboard) to register the sheets at various locations for stacking or finish processing. The linked arms keep the channel parallel to the paper path at all times regardless of inboard-outboard offset.

An attachment is attachable to and detachable from a sheet stacking board. The attachment includes an end fence configured to restrict a position of a trailing end of a sheet in a conveying direction. The end fence includes a facing surface facing the trailing end of the sheet. The facing surface includes an inclined surface inclined with respect to a vertical direction of a stacking surface on which the sheet is stacked, such that a higher part of the facing surface is located more upstream in the sheet conveying direction.

A sheet feeding device, which is included in an image forming apparatus and includes a device attachment body, includes a sheet container configured to accommodate a sheet, a support configured to support a lower face of the sheet in the sheet container, a sheet width regulator configured to regulate a position of the sheet in a sheet width direction, a conveying force applier configured to apply a sheet conveying force in a sheet conveying direction to the sheet in the sheet container, and a sheet guide disposed above the sheet in the sheet container and configured to regulate movement of the sheet in an upper direction.

The linked arms keep the channel parallel to the paper path at all times regardless of inboard-outboard offset.

A second roller set is disposed separately from a first roller set in one direction of the conveyance direction, and includes an intermittent roller that generates, during one rotation, a conveyance enabled time of contacting the card and conveying the card and a conveyance disabled time of not contacting the card and not conveying the card. A third roller set is disposed separately from the second roller set. A reference guide wall receives abutments of a first end portion of the card and arranges a position of the card in the width direction at a reference position. An urging guide wall urges a second end portion of the card toward the reference guide wall by a first urging force. A support wall regulates a movement of the reference guide wall toward the urging guide wall at a position serving as the reference position.

A tape feeder (part feeding device) includes a main body including a transporting passage for guiding a part feeding tape to a part removing position, a conveyor for positioning a storage of the part feeding tape which is inserted to the transporting passage to the part removing position, and a part detector for detecting the part stored in the storage in the transporting passage at the upstream side of the part removing position. The transporting passage includes a travelling surface for supporting the part feeding tape from underneath, a pair of side guides for guiding two side surfaces of the part feeding tape, and a squeezed portion in which a distance between the pair of side guides is gradually reduced from the upstream side of the part detector toward a part detecting position of the part detector.

A sheet feeding device, which is included in an image forming apparatus and includes a device attachment body, includes a sheet container configured to accommodate a sheet, a support configured to support a lower face of the sheet in the sheet container, a sheet width regulator configured to regulate a position of the sheet in a sheet width direction, a conveying force applier configured to apply a sheet conveying force in a sheet conveying direction to the sheet in the sheet container, and a sheet guide disposed above the sheet in the sheet container and configured to regulate movement of the sheet in an upper direction.
