ABSTRACT:
A recording-medium returning mechanism includes: a feed roller, provided to a feed-roller shaft that can be rotated, for coming into contact with a recording medium and feeding it; a hopper including a holder for holding a plurality of recording media stacked, the hopper being located at a position allowing the recording media on the holder to come into contact with the feed roller while being pressed against the feed roller and a position moving the recording media on the holder away from the feed roller; a separator for separating an uppermost recording medium on the holder from another recording medium simultaneously fed with the uppermost recording medium; and a return lever for returning the other recording medium to the holder.
