ABSTRACT:
Mechanism unit(s)6functioning as automatic-feed cassette(s) and mechanism unit(s)7functioning as manual-feed tray(s) together form a single integral module, constituting hybrid paper supply module5. Manual-feed mechanism unit(s)7is or are arranged below transport paths36, 37, which extend toward printing unit(s)3. Furthermore, path(s) along which recording paper P taken up from automatic-feed cassette mechanism unit(s)6is transported and path(s) along which recording paper P taken up from manual-feed mechanism unit(s)7is transported are made to intersect within the module, decreasing length(s) of respective path(s).
