Abstract
After the medium has been processed by the medium processing apparatus 100 (receipt journal printer), it lands on the top cover 120 of the medium processing apparatus 100 as a curled medium 160. The ejected medium drop prevention mechanism 110 is disposed at the point where the edge of the ejected medium lands. The ejected medium drop prevention mechanism 110 has a ladder like structure and holds the edge of the ejected medium by introducing the edge into the opening of the ladder like structure, thereby preventing the ejected medium from dropping down.
