1. A media processing device comprising:
a device case with a media entrance and a media exit; a media conveyance path formed in the device case to guide first media inserted from the media entrance from the front to the back on a front-back axis, and then from the back to the front on the front-back axis to the media exit, where when the device case is placed upright on a flat surface one direction parallel to the surface is the front-back axis, the direction parallel to the surface and perpendicular to the front-back axis is a device width axis, and the direction perpendicular to the surface is a vertical axis; a straight conveyance path connected to the media conveyance path at the media entrance or the media exit; a straight second media insertion path that extends from the media entrance or the media exit on a line extending the straight conveyance path toward the front on the front-back axis, and is formed in a top part of the device case facing up on the vertical axis, for inserting second media from the media entrance to the straight conveyance path or discharging second media to the outside of the straight conveyance path from the media exit; and an optical reading unit that images media passing through the straight conveyance path; wherein the straight conveyance path and the second media insertion path extend in a direction on the front-back axis or a direction slanted at an acute angle to the front-back axis; and the insertion direction of the first media inserted from the media entrance, or the discharge direction of the first media discharged from the media exit, is a direction different from the second media insertion path, and is a direction on the front-back axis or a direction slanted at an acute angle to the front-back axis. |
