Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A medium transporting device includes a first roller that inverts a medium supplied from a processing section side, the processing section processing the medium; a second roller that is located closer to the processing section than the first roller, the second roller having a function of inverting the medium supplied from the processing section side and a function of applying a transporting force to the medium using an outer peripheral surface of the second roller that faces both a pre-inversion medium transporting pathway for transporting a medium that has not been inverted by the first roller and a post-inversion medium transporting pathway for transporting a medium that has been inverted by the first roller; a medium transporting pathway that causes the medium supplied from the processing section side to be inverted along the second roller and causes the medium thus inverted to be supplied to the processing section side.
