Abstract
A sheet feeding device includes a sheet stacking base having a base surface for a sheet, a feeding member, and a pair of cursors. The pair of cursors includes first and second cursors that separate from and come close to each other along the sheet width direction, and is movable between first position and second position. The first and second cursors are separated by the maximum distance at the first position and by the minimum distance at the second position. The first cursor includes a movable base part, and a movable sub-cursor. When a narrow sheet is placed on the base surface, the sub-cursor is moved from the reference position toward the second cursor to be brought into contact with a side face of the narrow sheet to thereby position the narrow sheet.
