Scanner and multifunction device

A scanner comprising:

• a document table;
• a housing covering a side surface of the document table;
• a document cover pivotable about a pivot axis between a closed position to cover the document table and an open position to expose the document table;
• an operation panel through which operational commands are input and which is movable between a first position and a second position lower than the first position, the operation panel in the first position overlapping with the document cover in the closed position when viewed in a perpendicular direction to the pivot axis of the document cover, and the document cover being away from the operation panel in the perpendicular direction;
• and
• a moving mechanism configured to move the operation panel to the second position in response to pivoting of the document cover to the open position, and to move the operation panel to the first position in response to the pivoting of the document cover to the closed position.
