A recording device includes a recording unit configured to record on a medium, a transportation unit configured to transport the medium, a driving member, a plurality of gears configured to transmit a driving force of the driving member, and a sound absorber having an opening and a hollow space in communication with the opening. The sound absorber is located between a side end of the medium being transported by the transportation unit and the plurality of gears.

Recording device

A medium receiving tray has a first tray and a second tray. A movable support having a second support surface for supporting media is disposed in the second tray. When the medium receiving tray is in a first state, the movable support is positioned above a first support surface of the first tray. When the medium receiving tray is switched from the first state to a second state, a free end is detached from the downstream end of the first support surface and displaced downward, and the second support surface is thereby inclined upward toward the downstream in a medium discharging direction.

Recording apparatus

A recording apparatus includes: an apparatus main body that includes a recording unit; a medium-receiving tray that is configured to be switched between a first state and a second state; and a motor, in which the medium-receiving tray includes a first tray, a second tray that is configured to be displaced with respect to the first tray and that is positioned further than the first tray from the apparatus main body when the medium-receiving tray is in the second state, a pinion gear engaged with a first rack formed in the first tray in a displacement direction of the second tray and with a second rack formed in the second tray in the displacement direction, and a displacement section that supports the pinion gear and that is displaced in the displacement direction in response to receiving power from the motor.

A recording device includes a recording unit configured to eject a liquid onto a medium to record, a carriage including the recording unit and configured to move in an X direction corresponding to a medium width direction that intersects a Y direction corresponding to a medium transport direction, a liquid reservoir located in the carriage at a position above the recording unit, configured to contain a liquid, and having a fill port through which the liquid is supplied, a fill port unit located in the carriage at a position above the liquid reservoir and including a component for open/close operation of the fill port, and an operation unit through which the device is operated. The fill port unit and the operation unit partly overlap in a device front-rear direction that is parallel to the medium transport direction, when viewed in the X direction.
