Abstract
The present invention provides a sheet storage device having a high sheet receiving performance and whose size is reduced. A pointof intersection of a first upper guide and a second upper guide is located upstream from a pointof intersection of a first lower guide and a second lower guide in a sheet conveyance direction. Thus, the size of the sheet storage device can be reduced while the sheet receiving performance remains unaffected.
