Abstract
A first sheet stacker in which first sheets are stacked and retained by sheet separation claws is formed by a pair of first stacker forming members, and otherwise, a second sheet stacker free from the sheet separation claws is formed by placing second stacker forming members in between the first stacker forming members. Thus, the sheets different in size and thickness can be properly stacked in a single sheet stacker and selectively sent one by one to a printing apparatus such as a general purpose printer without use of any auxiliary sheet cassette or stacker.
