A multifunctional peripheral includes a main body, an upper unit arranged on the main body, and an opening and closing mechanism connected to the upper unit and the main body. The multifunctional peripheral further includes a damping unit including an engaging member configured to move in a predetermined direction and a spring configured to resiliently urge the engaging member in a direction opposite to the predetermined direction. During sliding of a slider from the first position to the second position, the slider engages the engaging member at an engaging position on a sliding path, moves the engaging member in the predetermined direction as the slider slides toward the second position, and disengages the engaging member at a disengaging position between the engaging position and the second position such that the slider is released from receiving the force of the spring via the engaging member when in the second position.
