    Abstract: An example print medium loading device includes a loading unit on which a print medium is loadable, a transporting roller unit to transport a print medium toward the loading unit, and a moving gate between the loading unit and the transporting roller unit. The loading gate moves according to locations to which the print medium is transported. In an example, when a first print medium is loaded on the loading unit and the transporting roller unit transports a second print medium toward the loading unit, the moving gate is positioned at the first location to overlap a trailing end of the first print medium toward the moving gate. When the leading end of the second print medium is past the moving gate and the second print medium is loaded on the loading unit, the moving gate sequentially moves through the first through fourth positions.

    Abstract: A sheet folding device includes a folding path, a positioning member, a first folding roller, a second folding roller, a folding blade, a guide path, and a conveying roller. The positioning member is to support a leading edge of a sheet fed along the folding path and align the sheet at an initial folding position. The first folding roller is to engage with the second folding roller to form a folding nip. The folding blade is to move to an insertion position to push the sheet on the folding path into the folding nip. The guide path is provided around the first folding roller to return the sheet that has passed through the folding nip to the folding path. The conveying roller is to partially rotate around the first folding roller, to engage with the first folding roller to form a conveying nip and to feed the sheet along the guide path.

    Abstract: A sheet folding apparatus including a folding roller, a positioning member, a push member, and a shift member. The folding roller including a pair of rollers to rotatably engage with each other to form a folding nip. The positioning member to support a first end of a printing medium which is fed along a folding path and to arrange the printing medium in an initial folding location. The push member to move to an insertion location to push the printing medium on the folding path into the folding nip, and to move to a retreat location. The shift member, located at an exit of the folding nip, to selectively guide the printing medium to a guide path to return the printing medium having passed through the folding nip to the folding path, the guide path being provided around at least one of the pair of rollers.
