Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A media processing device enables reading second media that do not bend easily from the device front with the same ease of use as processing first media that bend easily. The media processing device has a media conveyance path that guides first media inserted from a media insertion opening toward the back and then again toward the front on the front-back axis to the media exit. A straight conveyance path that angles to the inside on the device width axis is formed at a part connected to the media exit, and a second media insertion path that extends straight to the front from the straight conveyance path is connected to the media exit.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A media processing device comprising: a first media conveyance path configured to guide a first media; a first media entrance configured to receive and guide the first media into the first media conveyance path; a first media exit configured to discharge the first media from the first media conveyance path; a second media conveyance path configured to guide a second media; a second media entrance configured to receive and guide the second media into the second media conveyance path; and a second media exit configured to discharge the second media from the second media conveyance path, wherein the first media entrance and the second media entrance face opposite sides of the media processing device, and wherein the second media entrance is disposed, relative to a media path extending from the first media entrance to the first media exit, between the first media entrance and the first media exit.
