Abstract
A paper cassette adapted for use in a printing device has a cassette body connected to a body of the printing device, a supporting plate having a first end being pivotally disposed in the cassette body to support printing paper, a spring elastically supporting a lower side of the supporting plate relative to a bottom of the cassette body, a finger member disposed on the cassette body to limit a rising height of the supporting plate and separating the printing paper sheet by sheet, and a shock absorbing portion guiding a rising and lowering movement of the supporting plate and lessening a shock exerted on the finger member when the supporting plate stacked with the printing paper rises from a lowered state by reducing a rising speed of the supporting plate that is raised by the spring.
