A post-processing device includes a processing tray, an aligning plate, a transport section, a feeding section, and a pressing section. A sheet before being subjected to stapling processing by a stapler is to be mounted on the processing tray. The aligning plate aligns ends of a plurality of sheets. The transport section transports the sheet toward the aligning plate. The feeding section is provided between the transport section and the aligning plate and feeds the sheet in a transport direction. The pressing section is provided between the transport section and the aligning plate and applies, to the sheet, a pressing force having a component in a direction opposite from the transport direction. Further, the pressing section applies the pressing force to the sheet before the feeding section applies a feeding force to the sheet.

Post-processing device

A processing system includes a stacker on which at least one medium recorded with an image is stacked, a holding unit configured to hold the medium, a processing path extending from the stacker to the holding unit, a pick roller configured to transport the medium from the stacker to the processing path, a reading unit configured to read the medium transported through the processing path, and a control unit configured to store indication data indicating an index of whether to transport a medium to the holding unit, wherein, when receiving a processing instruction from a user, the control unit is configured to cause the pick roller to transport a medium from the stacker to the processing path, and determine whether to transport the medium to the holding unit, based on read data and the indication data, the read data being acquired by reading the medium by the reading unit.

Processing system

A recording deviceincludes a device main bodyincluding a recording section; a placement trayon which a medium M is configured to be placed; and a cassetteprovided below the recording sectionand the placement trayand configured to accommodate a medium M. The device main bodyincludes a first pathconfigured to feed medium M placed on the placement trayto the recording sectionand further to transport the recorded medium and a second pathconfigured to transport medium placed on the placement trayto the cassette

Recording device

A post-processing unit includes a punch unit that punches a paper on which recording is performed by a recording unit that discharges ink, and a controller that controls a punching operation of the punch unit. The controller sets at least one of the number of punching and a punching speed per paper in the punch unit based on setting information of at least one of recording information and environmental information in the recording unit.

Post-processing device and printing device

A loading unit includes a processing tray, alignment units, and a paddle. In the processing tray, a medium is placed. The alignment units are disposed an interval in a Y direction to align a downstream tip end in a positive A direction of the medium. The paddle moves the medium that has been fed onto the processing tray toward the alignment units. A coefficient of friction of a contact surface of the alignment unit is higher than a coefficient of friction of a front face of the alignment unit, and the contact surface is positioned downstream of the front face in the positive A direction.

Medium loading device and post-processing device

A processing device includes a medium supporting portion having a support surface for supporting at least a front end portion of a transported medium, an aligning portion for aligning the medium supported by the medium supporting portion, a stacking portion provided below the medium supporting portion in a vertical direction, having a stacking surface on which the medium dropped from the medium supporting portion is stacked, and configured to move up and down, and a pressing portion having a pressing surface facing the support surface, the pressing surface being configured to move between a first position and a second position closer to the support surface than the first position, in which the pressing portion is disposed at the first position when the medium is transported to the medium supporting portion, and is disposed at the second position after the aligning portion aligns the medium on the medium supporting portion.
