Abstract

A sheet feed device includes a first sheet cassette comprising an accommodating portion configured to accommodate a first plurality of sheets, and a second sheet cassette disposed on the first sheet cassette and configured to accommodate a second plurality of sheets, in which at least one characteristic of the first plurality of sheets is different than at least one characteristic of the second plurality of sheets. The sheet feed device also includes a sheet feeder configured to feed the first plurality of sheets and the second plurality of sheets in a sheet feed direction toward a recording unit, and a sheet separator configured to separate, one by one, the sheets fed by the sheet feeder. Specifically, the second sheet cassette is configured to move above the accommodating portion and with respect to the sheet feeder from a first position to a second position and from the second position to the first position, and the sheet feeder selectively feeds the first plurality of sheets and the second plurality of sheets.
