Abstract
A printer includes a first upper face cover and a second upper face cover. The first upper face cover is formed such that when a medium is set in a setting port, the width direction of the medium is a first direction, and the first upper face cover has a smaller dimension in the first direction than a dimension of an apparatus main body in the first direction. The first upper face cover in a closed state is included inside the second upper face cover in plan view when the second upper face cover is in a closed state. The first upper face cover and the second upper face cover both in the closed states form a shape that corresponds to an outline of an upper portion of the apparatus main body.
