A packaging material includes a holding part that holds a plurality of recording sheets in a bundle without holding at least one end of the recording sheets and an extending part that extends from the holding part so as to cover at least part of one outer surface at the one end of the recording sheets that are held in the bundle by the holding part, with a friction coefficient of an inner surface of the extending part that contacts the recording sheets being approximately equal to a friction coefficient of the recording sheets. By packaging recording sheets with this packaging material, a pickup roller can come into contact with the end of the recording sheets and pick up the recording sheets one at a time while the recording sheets are still in a bundle by the holding part. In addition, the extending part is present as an underlay between the bottom plate and the final recording sheet, so that the recording sheets can be picked up one at a time right up to the final recording sheet. <IMAGE> |
