Abstract

A paper feed tray includes: a tray main body which holds a sheet such that the sheet can be fed in a predetermined paper feed direction; and a regulation plate which can be moved in a side direction perpendicular to the paper feed direction and which regulates the position of the held sheet in the side direction. In the tray main body, a first engagement tooth row and a second engagement tooth row whose engagement teeth are aligned in the side direction are provided so as to be opposite each other, and the first engagement tooth row is higher than the second engagement tooth row. In the regulation plate, an engagement member is provided which can be moved in the direction of height of the engagement tooth rows and which engages with the engagement tooth rows to reduce the movement of the regulation plate in the side direction.
