Abstract
In a continuous mode, when a state in which a current value, which is output of a load detecting sensor, is equal to or more than a predetermined threshold (a current value) continues for a predetermined threshold (the number of times), it is determined that transportation is abnormal. In a cumulative mode, when the total number of times by which the current value, which is the output of the load detecting sensor, is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold (the current value) is equal to or more than a predetermined threshold, it is determined that the transportation is abnormal. A controller sets a detection mode of a first medium to the continuous mode, and sets a detection mode of a second medium to the cumulative mode.
