Abstract: A printing apparatus includes: a roll sheet container that contains a roll sheet around which a recording sheet is wound; a first sheet guide that makes contact with a first surface of the recording sheet; a second sheet guide that makes contact with a second surface of the recording sheet; and a transport roller that transports the recording sheet. The first and second sheet guides are disposed so as to face each other to form a sheet route along which the recording sheet is to pass. The transport roller transports the recording sheet that passed along the sheet route. The second sheet guide includes: a projection that protrudes toward the roll sheet container; and a pushing section that extends from the projection along an outer circumference of the roll sheet and in a direction away from the first sheet guide.

Abstract: A switching portion is configured to change in position between a first switching position and a second switching position, at which the switching portion protrudes more from a bottom surface of a housing than at the first switching position. The first switching position is a position at which the switching portion is located in a state of being in contact with the installation surface when the housing is installed on the installation surface. The second switching position is a position at which the switching portion is located when the housing is not installed on the installation surface. The switching portion does not restrict a change in position of a body in a position-change direction when located at the first switching position and restricts the change in position of the body in the position-change direction when located at the second switching position.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a recording unit that performs recording by ejecting ink onto a medium; a pump unit that sucks a waste liquid discharged from the recording unit in a maintenance of the recording unit; a wall portion; a body in which the recording unit, the pump unit, and the wall portion are provided; and a housing in which the body is housed. The body is provided in the housing in such a way as to be changed in position between a closed position and an open position in a depth direction. The closed position is a position where the body is housed in the housing. The open position is a position where the body protrudes from the housing and where a part of the body is exposed from the housing. The wall portion is provided at a position of hiding at least a part of the pump unit exposed when the body is located at the open position.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a recording unit that performs recording on a medium, a body in which the recording unit is mounted, a housing configured to house the body, and a holding portion configured to hold the body at a predetermined position with respect to the housing. The predetermined position includes a closed position, a first open position, and a second open position. The closed position is a position at which the body is housed inside the housing. The first open position is a position at which the body protrudes from the housing in a first displacement direction of a displacement direction intersecting with a vertical direction by a first distance. The second open position is a position at which the body protrudes from the housing in the first displacement direction by a second distance longer than the first distance.

Abstract: A printing device includes: a printing unit printing on a recording paper; a feeder unit that has a roller rotating in a first direction about a shaft and feeding the recording paper, and a motor rotating the shaft; a detection unit detecting a rotation of the shaft in the first direction and a rotation thereof in a second direction opposite to the first direction; and a control unit controlling the feeder unit, based on the rotation of the shaft detected by the detection unit. The control unit causes the motor of the feeder unit to rotate the shaft in the first direction and then stop the shaft, and subsequently causes the motor to rotate the shaft in the first direction before the printing unit prints, based on the rotation of the shaft in the second direction detected by the detection unit.
