A processing device includes a support table to support a sheet medium, a sheet cutter to cut the medium supported on the support table, a cutter holder to move the sheet cutter in a toward-away direction in which the sheet cutter moves toward and away from the support table, and a cutter transporter to move the cutter holder in a cutting direction that is orthogonal to a transport direction of the medium. The cutter holder includes a holder movable in the toward-away direction and that holds the sheet cutter, an actuator including a rod that extends or retracts, a link connected to the rod and the holder, and a rotation shaft that rotatably supports the link so that the holder moves in the toward-away direction in response to extension or retraction of the rod.

In an ink supply system, an ink tank is connected with an inlet flow channel that is connected with a connection flow channel that is connected with an upstream flow channel, and the upstream flow channel is connected with an ink head. The ink head and the connection flow channel are connected with each other by a downstream flow channel. An upstream pump and an upstream damper are provided in the upstream flow channel, and a downstream pump and a downstream damper are provided in the downstream flow channel. A controller controls the upstream pump and the downstream pump.

An air trap unit includes an air trap container that stores ink, a flow inlet provided in the air trap container and allowing the ink to flow into the air trap container, a flow outlet provided in the air trap container and allowing the ink in the air trap container to flow out, and an inclination mechanism that inclines the air trap container such that the air trap container is put into one of a first state and a second state, the first state being a state where the air trap container is inclined such that the flow inlet is at a level higher than, or equal to, that of the flow outlet, and the second state being a state where the air trap container is inclined such that the flow outlet is at a level higher than that of the flow inlet.
