Abstract
A sheet receiving apparatus includes a sheet placing surface inclined such that the sheet is placed toward an upstream side of an ejecting direction of a sheet ejecting device, a sheet pressing device for pressing the sheet toward the second sheet placing surface, a driving device connected to the sheet pressing device for retreating the sheet pressing device from the sheet placing surface every time the sheet is ejected and moving the sheet pressing device back to the sheet placing surface, and a sheet detecting device located at the upstream side of the ejecting device for detecting the sheet and actuating the driving device. The sheet can be properly stacked and placed on the sheet placing surface.
