ABSTRACT:
In a recording apparatus designed to effect printing onto a sheet of paper, a main body is provided with a printing means arranged to effect printing onto the sheet of paper. The main body is provided with a cassette-mounting portion into which a cassette used to receive therein a sheet of paper to be fed toward the printing means is mounted from above the main body and obliquely with respect thereto. The cassette is provided with a sheet size regulating plate slidable in accordance with the size of the sheet received therein. The sheet size regulating plate is provided at one end with a magnet. On the other hand, the cassette-mounting portion is provided with a sensor operating at the time when said magnet moves to come near thereto. This sensor is connected to a display plate provided to the main body. Accordingly, when the sensor senses the position of the magnet, display is made of the size of the sheet set in the cassette by the display plate.
