Abstract
A recording medium support device includes the following elements. A feed tray is capable of receiving stacked recording media. A recording medium support is pivotably connected to the feed tray. The support is switchable between a closing position and an opening position by pivoting. An anti-falling section prevents the recording medium support from falling to the closing position by coming into contact with the base of the recording medium support in the opening position.
