Abstract: A printing apparatus includes an automatic opening mechanism for an opening/closing cover, a carriage that has a print head configured to perform printing on a medium and that moves in a direction intersecting a transport direction of the medium, and a discharge portion that is exposed in a state in which the opening/closing cover is opened and that discharges a printed material. The automatic opening mechanism includes a lever for releasing maintenance of a closed state of the opening/closing cover by movement of the carriage. The discharge portion discharges the printed material outside the apparatus. The automatic opening mechanism is arranged so as to overlap a discharge opening region of the discharge portion in a height direction.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes: a housing; a recording section that performs a recording operation on a medium and is disposed inside the housing; a storage section that stores the medium; a transport route along which the medium is transported; a transport section that transports the medium; a reading section that reads an original sheet and is positioned higher than the recording section; a supply section that supplies the original sheet to the reading section; and a supply route through which the original sheet passes. Each of the supply and transport routes is formed at substantially right angles to a width of the housing. The transport route has a curved section in which the medium is turned over. The reading section is positioned behind the recording section in a depth direction from the front to rear surface of the housing.

Abstract: A cap portion includes a first edge portion that is a portion configured to come into contact with the head surface and that extends in the medium width direction and a second edge portion that is a portion configured to come into contact with the head surface, that is located downstream of the first edge portion in the medium conveying direction, and that extends in the medium width direction. One of the first edge portion and the second edge portion is provided with a wiper. The cap portion is movable moving along the medium conveying direction, to a first position at which the cap portion faces the head surface and a second position to which the cap portion retreats from the first position. The wiper wipes the head surface when the cap portion moves from the first position to the second position.
