The releasing member has a plane surface with which the surface of the recording member recorded with the printing material comes into contact. The releasing member moves to a predetermined direction with the recording member held thereon. The separating device is disposed on the plane surface of the releasing member for separating the recording member from the releasing member. A separation line between the releasing member and the recording member is angled with respect to the front end of the recording member.
