Abstract
A roll medium feeding apparatus includes a roll medium accommodating unit including a bearing that supports a shaft member of a roll medium, and a drawer member configured to slide relative to the roll medium accommodating unit. First support surfaces configured to support ends of the shaft member are provided to the roll medium accommodating unit so as to extend in a direction in which the drawer member slides from the bearings, and second support surfaces configured to support the ends of the shaft member are provided to the drawer member so as to intersect with the first support surfaces at an obtuse angle relative to a direction in which the shaft member extends.
