The second conveyance unit includes a second holder that holds one edge of the sheet, and conveys the sheet held by the second holder. The third conveyance unit is supported to be swingable between a reception position at which the third conveyance unit receives the sheet from the first conveyance unit, and a transfer position at which the third conveyance unit transfers the sheet to the second conveyance unit. Also, the third conveyance unit includes a third holder that holds the other edge of the sheet conveyed by the first conveyance unit, and conveys the sheet held by the third holder. The independent driving unit independently drives the first conveyance unit. The device driving unit drives an entire device including the second and third conveyance units.
