Abstract: A printer has: a recording unit having a recorder that makes a record on a medium; and a scanner unit having a reader that reads an original placed on an original table, the scanner unit being disposed on the top of the recording unit. The scanner unit is horizontally shift between a first position at which the recording unit is used and a second position, which is a maintenance position of the recording unit.

Abstract: A printer includes: a restriction unit that is in a rotation allowing state in which opening of a scanner unit from a closed state is allowed when a panel unit is in a first posture and is in a restriction state in which opening of the scanner unit from the closed state is restricted when the panel unit is tilted from the first posture to a second posture; and a posture holding unit that is in a tiltable state in which the posture of the panel unit is tilted from the first posture to the second posture when the scanner unit is in a closed state and is in a posture holding state in which the posture of the panel unit is held in the first posture when the scanner unit is rotated from the closed state in an opening direction.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes: a feeding unit that feeds a medium placed on a medium placing unit located on a back side (?Y) of the apparatus; a transport unit that transports the medium fed from the feeding unit; a recording unit that performs recording on the medium transported from the transport unit; a reverse path that transports the medium in a reverse direction after recording is performed by the recording unit to turn over the medium; and a feed driving motor that drives the feeding unit, wherein the feed driving motor is disposed above the reverse path.

Abstract: An image reader includes: a document transport path through which a document to be read is transported; a transport roller that is provided on a lower side in the document transport path and is driven to apply a feed force to the document. The lower side of the document transport path upstream from the transport roller is at a position that is lower than a highest position of an outer circumferential surface of the transport roller and is formed on a lower guide surface guiding the document to the transport roller. A guiding unit is provided downstream from the lower guide surface and guides the document from the lower guide surface to a position on the outer circumferential surface of the transport roller, the position being higher than the lower guide surface.

Abstract: An image reader includes: a document transport path that is extended along a horizontal direction when the reader has a first posture and that transports the document; a transport roller that transports the document in the document transport path; a rotation-contact member document path rotating to have a posture in which a contact portion that comes into contact with the document blocks the document transport path and a posture in which the contact portion opens the document transport path; path A rotation center of the rotation-contact member is positioned on an upper side of the document transport path in the first posture and the contact portion projects from the upper side toward a lower side of the document transport path. A center-of-gravity position of the rotation-contact member is on a lower side from the rotation center in the first posture.

Abstract: An image reading apparatus includes a pressing member having a pressing portion that is configured to move to a pressing position at an upper portion of a mounting area and to a retracting position away from the upper portion of the mounting area, independently from an edge guide, and presses a sheet.

Abstract: A paper case includes a paper ejection opening, side walls, and a front wall. When the paper case is mounted on a paper stand, the paper ejection opening is positioned at a front end facing a downstream side. In addition, the side walls are positioned on a first side and a second side in a direction intersecting a transport route and each have a height relative to the paper stand greater than a height of the paper feed opening relative to the paper stand. Furthermore, the front wall continues from the front end and slopes so that a height of the front wall relative to the paper stand increases toward an upstream side of the transport route.
