To prevent erroneous mounting of a cassette cover while supporting the cassette cover securely and stably in a plurality of paper feeding cassettes.
Since a projecting part 79b of a second cassette cover 79 advances into a recessed part 82, an engaging part 81 of the second cassette cover 79 is elastically engaged with an engaged part 80. The second cassette cover 79 is attached to a cassette extension part 17 of a second cassette 15 in a correct mounting condition to cover an upper opening part of a cassette main body 16 of a second cassette 15. When an attempt to attach the second cassette cover 79 to a first cassette 14 erroneously is made, a lower end of high projecting part 79b of the second cassette cover 79 is abutted on upper ends of left and right sidewalls 17b, 17c of the first cassette 14 to prevent the engaging part 81 from being engaged with the engaged part 80, thereby preventing erroneous mounting of the cassette cover.
