Abstract: An apparatus is provided that may offer functionalities including printing, scanning and/or copying. The apparatus may include a manual sheet feeding tray disposed at the rear of the apparatus. The height of the sheet feeding tray might not exceed a height of the apparatus, allowing use of the apparatus in spaces having smaller depths. The apparatus may include a sheet guide configured to move in conjunction with the movement of the tray. In some arrangements, a surface of the sheet feeding tray may differ in height between lateral edges of the tray and a central portion. This difference may cause a sheet to be curved in a lateral direction, rendering the sheet more inflexible in a longitudinal direction. According to other aspects, a depressed portion of the tray may match a protrusion extending from the guide in shape such that the two portions may mate in a retracted position.

Abstract: A first positioning member is provided on a document table to extend in a first scanning direction and determines a position in a second scanning direction of an edge of a document placed on the placing surface. A first reference area holding member extends from a first positioning member over the placing surface and holds, on its surface opposing the placing surface, two reference areas extending parallel to the first scanning direction and including a first and second reference areas each having a different pattern from each other. A border position in the first scanning direction between at least one of the first and second reference areas and the document is detected, based on a received light quantity of reflected light. A size determining unit calculates a document length in the first scanning direction based on the detected border position.
