Abstract
A medium conveying apparatus includes a conveying roller to convey a medium, an end detection sensor for detecting a position of an end of the medium conveyed by the conveying roller, an overlap detection sensor for detecting an overlap of the medium conveyed by the conveying roller in a detection area, and a processor to determine whether an overlap detection is valid or invalid based on a positional relationship between the position of the end of the medium detected by the end detection sensor and the detection area, and execute an abnormality processing for multi-feed based on a detection result by the overlap detection sensor when it is determined that the overlap detection is valid.
